Black Giant Photo Thread - Show us your Parker Giants

[usasoccerboy]

Hello. I used to work at the pen store on my avatar in New Orleans and the owner there contacted me yesterday about a person who came into his store with a black giant pen. This pen has no clip and the owner of the pen told me it was passed down from her father and that her father was once offered $25,000 for it. That seems a bit too high even by today's standard, but I am not sure. The owner of the pen's father told her that this particular pen, only 5 were made, but I know that black giants were offered to the public. I am to go look at the pen tomorrow and take some pictures as well as bring my books and research that I have on the pen to her. So far, all I have are 4 pics from a phone that were sent to me. I will try to post them here in a bit. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151839855050303&set=pcb.10151839858510303&type=1&theater

Just added a Parker Giant without clip. This pen must have been used heavily in the past and has witnessed the passage of time..
