Parker 75 Gordon Gold Plated Fountain Pen?

[almico]

I spied this pen for sale near me, but I don't recognize the clip. Thoughts??

You don’t recognise the clip because that pen is not a Parker 75:

The pen in your photos is a Parker ‘Arrow’:

Parker went on to produce the similar-looking Parker 95:

I am pretty certain that the pen in your pictures is an ‘Arrow’ and not a 95, because of the appearance of its cap finial.

Big thanks. I thought I was going crazy. They insisted it was a 75.

No feathers on clip = Arrow.

Lower end pens like Vectors have a similar style clip.

Neither 75 nor gordon!

Just for clarification, I believe that the pattern you thought that it was, but is not, is called “godron” not “gordon”.

As mentioned above (left to right and top to bottom):

75, Arrow, 95, Vector.
