From the album: Mercian’s pens
A photo to attempt to show the countries of manufacture of my three Parker 45 'Flighters'. Two were 'MADE IN ENGLAND', the other one was 'MADE IN FRANCE'. These pens were all made in the 1970s, so all have the 'wide' PARKER logo, and none of them have production dates code stamped on them.© Mercian

Top-Bottom: Parker 45 ‘Flighter’ BP I think that it was made in the late 1960s. Its clip-screw/cap-tassie is one of the ‘inverted cone’ ones. Note the fine grooves that have been incised around the pen during manufacture to create a ‘grip-section’ near its writing tip. Thi...

A photo to show the three different types of clip-screw/cap-tassie on my Parker 45s. L-R: ‘Inverted-cone’ or ‘conical’ tassie, on my Parker 45 ‘Flighter’ BP, which I believe to date from the late 1960s. ‘Dimpled’ tassie, on my Parker 45 ‘Flighter’ FP from the early 1970s...

I'm really interested in trying some iron gall inks, because I like the permanence aspect to them, as well as the fact that they darken the longer they are on the page. I just reall...
