What Parker Are You Using This Day?

[mitto]

Parker 51 aero midnight blue broad nib

Parker 75 sterling silver medium nib

Parker 51 aero demi gold fine nib.

Filled with Pelikan 4001 blue, turquoise and green ink respectively.

[TeaHive]

P41 in Pale Green, medium nib. I loooooove the minty, off-white color. I wish it had a finer nib, but I suppose not ALL my pens need to be EFs and needlepoints.

[PhilProf]

P51 vacumatic, black, fine nib.

[uemuraw]

Fussy Parker Sonnet with Parker Quink Permanent Blue. I've decided that this is a bad combination. Dried out. Quick lick got no results. Coffee dip didn't get 'er done. Primed a couple drops and finally got a little something going on. That combination is out. Time to try a different ink with this pen.

Parker 51, vacumatic, fine, grey dove.

[mitto]

1945 Parker 51 vacumatic black gold cap medium nib.

[peterg]

A black streamline Duofold Senior with a British imprint, so I assume it dates to the 1940's. It is producing a wet fine line which is perfect for small writing.

[Flounder]

Black Aero 51, stylish rolled silver cap, beautifully executed Newhaven M nib. Bliss.

[Amberjack]

Newhaven Duofold in Chocolate Brown, superb 14k broad flex-nib. Restored just this afternoon and inked with Waterman's Havana. Outstanding.

[mallymal1]

A very nice, blue, P21.

[Eduardo]

Parker 51 Vacumatic

Parker 51 Signet Aerometric

[PAKMAN]

Parker 75 kind of day:

 

Parker 75 Flighter with Quink Blue-Black

Parker 75 Silver Barleycorn with Iro Kon-Peki

[PowerWriter]

A black Parker 45, steel F, at work.

[mitto]

A 45 Arrow blue with broad stub 14k gold nib and a 45 early Flighter (black plastic barrel end) with 14k gold M nib. Inked with Pelikan 4001 blue and green respectively.

 

Edited to add the word 'gold' twice in the nibs description.

A red black marble Duofold NS dating from 1949? (nib is 35 9) with a great ball of tipping which is as smooth as anything. Just bought it at a local charity shop for £25.

[inkstainedruth]

Parker Vacumatic Junior (Red Shadow Wave, F? nib) for my journal entry.

Parker 51 Aero Demi (Plum, M nib), for making notes (ingredients lists for the pies I had entered in the cooking contest at an event I was at; and writing down my answers for a scavenger hunt: small numbered signs with pictures of numbers posted on them, and you had to write down all the numbers -- which were in no particular order or arrangement and stuck up all over the site, both inside and out....

Parker 25 and Parker Insignia. My two favorite Parkers.

[TeaHive]

I've been doing some fun flexy writing with my FrankenParker Challenger (has an E. Faber nib and a Striped Duofold blindcap), and I've been doing some journalling with the new (to me) 41 in Pale Green.

[mitto]

Parker 180 signet and Parker classic laque black. Inked with Parker blue quink and Pelikan black respectively.

[onetake]

Parker 45 GT in blue, with an M nib inked with Waterman Serenity Blue (that really looks more like Quink Washable Blue to me)
