A Turquoise P45 and dark green P21 pencil on the way, too.

 

 

Haha, back to first love, I guess. Last pens of last year and now first pens pens of new year, two Arrows on the way, used matte black F and NOS Flighter M.

It's hard work to tell which is Old Harry when everybody's got boots on.

Parker 75 Prince de Gales (B) completes a trio with Milleraies (F) and Ciselé (F).

As expected cleaning a second hand 75 nib unit takes a little patience and some Rapido Eze but is well worth it. I had my eye on a Perlé for a long time but it never came up with a broader than F nib.

VERY nice. 

Just give me the Parker 51s and nobody needs to get hurt.

just completed the purchase on this one - is it a Parker 85?

there aren't a ton of photos on the web to compare against but it seems like it is?

Was only $20 CAD with shipping 

 

edit - although the clip isn't right, but the section looks smooth like an 85

Very nice colour; for once a vintage company logo makes it even nicer. Welcome to the jet age.

Dear god I have wanted one of these for YEARS, but simply cannot find one for less than $300. At that price I’d have a hard time inking and using it if it were NOS.

@baz666 -- Very cool!  I had heard of these, but had never actually seen one before.  And it's NOS!?  :notworthy1:

Sigh.  If Carguy hasn't been able to afford one of these, there's no hope for me.... Even if I win the Megamillions jackpot....

Oh I can afford one, it’s not that…..I just don’t believe in spending that much on a  nostalgia pen.

Latest for me is a parker with a wrong mismatching cap and a later nib .

Imprint still have some of the black filling.  Button and bar is both clean and plating is mostly intact. Nib is a marked duofold so not correct for the black tipped jade barrel :(. Sac is removed.

The color is fantastic and the imprint is very strong! That is worth hunting a cap and nib for! I have three of the Senior BTJ, pre-Duofold Jade pens but not one is as nice color-wise. Congrats!
