Hi All, Recently I have collected two vintage Parker Slimfold fountain pens, both made in England. One is black, fitted with a fine 14k nib, and the other is green and fitted with a medium 14k nib (photo attached). The nibs are identical. But their construction is totally different. The filling mechanism is the same for both pens. I would love to know their approximate manufacturing time and which one is the more authentic one among these two. Please help me in this regard. Thank you in advance.

For the Parkers using the pliglass sacs, I have seen two different adhesives recommended when replacing the sac, Shellac or clear nail polish.... Which is correct, or better if either can be used? I have a slimfold that well best non technical term for the sac is gooey. No idea what caused it to be that way but when I took the pen apart I peeled that sucker right off and chucked it... and a Parker 21 that looks like they used some sort of permanent black ink in it, so for esthetic purposes I wish to replace. Thanks
