| Parker 61 vs Parker 65
Apart from an occasional variation in imprint, the only
difference between the later (post-capillary filling) Parker 61 and 65 is the nib unit. On the left,
the Parker 61 nib unit is a hooded design similar to the Parker 51 with
the addition of gold coloured arrow motif which was held in place by a
heat actuated glue. Unfortunately, the plastic was slightly permeable to
ink which destroys the glue - hence many arrows fall off. Later
production used an ABS type plastic which solved the problem.
The 65 nib unit - shown on the left - is an open style
nib more similar to the VP or 75 design.
