What Parker Are You Using This Day?

[johnmc2]

1946-8 Parker Duofold New Style (UK) the first English Duofold, a button-filler, with a lovely fine Sheaffer #3 nib. Diamine Chocolate brown ink, An absolute joy to write with! Maybe one day a Newhaven Parker nib will present itself, but for now this is a very happy mixed marriage.

What does a late middle-aged divorced male do at 7:00 am on a Sunday? He puts together the pens he prepared the night before. I'm using my newly gained orange Parker Duofold Jr. After a clean-up, a new sac, and a mild tune-up of the nib, I'm pretty happy with it. I'll have pics later, with any luck, and a working memory.

Surprisingly only an Urban Matte Black filled with Platinum Pigment Blue.

A burgundy Parker 45 Arrow with Parker Washable Blue Quink... the ink isn't great (all I had at short notice) but I'd forgotten how much I like this pen!

^{One Parker Arrown Flighter made in England from 1982}

I've only got one Parker at the moment -- a medium point, stainless steel with gold trim Parker Sonnet fountain pen. So when I use a Parker, that's the one. I am thinking about getting a Parker IM though, since it seems to get fairly good reviews and isn't expensive.

Parker Insignia and Parker 25 (there is always one of those in rotation)

The Duofold AF is back in rotation. Wonderful, wonderful nib.

[Matlock]

Still the 75 with needlepoint nib and Penman Ebony ink.

[gweimer1]

I've put the Duofold Jr away (old Bakelite and daily use have some risks).

 

Today, I've inked up an old friend, a black Parker 51 vac, and the g/f cap has a fresh blue diamond now. My second time restoring the diamond on a pen, and it went pretty well.

Going to play with my '47 P51 desk set to pay a bill now.
