There are three major Parker 75 limited editions: The Spanish Treasure (1965); the RMS Queen Elizabeth (1970) and the Bicentennial or Americana (1976). In addition to these main editions, there are some very spacial 75s such as: The Space Pen (Ballpoint) Some 250 button-actuated ballpoints were made in 1968 and were engraved around the cap lip "USA into Space 20 II 1962". This edition was never offered for sale by Parker and was presented by the Parker company to various heads of state and NASA officials. The Space Pen (Fountain Pen) Parker also made four fountain pens from a fragment of the booster rocket from 'Friendship 7'. Two of these pens are in the Parker archive; one was presented to the astronaut, John Glenn and the fourth was sold to a private collector in 2001 for around £14,000.
