The photos above are of the actual pen we are offering for sale here
This is an English Parker 51 Classic with steel cap in teal blue. This is fitted with a medium 14k gold nib which produces a writing line of around 0.6mm
In terms of condition, this has been carefully looked after and is in excellent overall condition. In particular, the steel cap has retained the majority of its factory frosted finish and is a pleasingly firm fit on the pen
In terms of dating, this is probably from around the late 1950s as the cap has the earlier cage style clutch; the barrel does not have the earlier imprint and the cap has the simple 'Parker' imprint
Condition B/1m - (Ref 12795)

We have fully serviced this pen which includes disassembling the pen, ultrasonically cleaning all the parts and fitting a new pliglass ink sac. We then reassemble the pen, check ink flow and the smoothness of the nib. We also check and adjust the tightness and positioning of the clip.
This is a Parker 51 with the aerometric filling system. The pen fills from an ink bottle and does not take cartridges
