Hi pen people!

 

trying to ID this pen- so far I’ve got it’s a 51 and the instructions take me to 1975.

 

anybody know anymore? I’ve tried to look at the etchings on the pen but I can’t read them, even with a magnifying glass or zooming with my phone.

 

anybody any ideas?

Looking at the pens mentioned on that brochure, it's not a 75, 61 or 45, so that leaves a 65.  Check that out.

It reminds me of a VP, but that’s not listed on the brochure.

Thanks for your replies

 

it does say 51 on the barrel- not sure if you can see that in the picture.

I second what PAKMAN says - P51 MKIII. I have one and it has served me well for many years. It still works great and is a pleasure to use.

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
