The photos above are of the actual pen we are offering for sale here
This is an English Parker 51 Mk1 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 shows hardly any signs of having been used and is in excellent overall condition. The cap is particularly crisp with its original factory frosting with only superficial surface scuffs from storage
In terms of dating, this is probably around 1962 as the cap just has the 'Halo' imprint and the later four prong clutch whereas the pen still has a sac protector with the black end piece
Condition A2/1m - (Ref 12888)

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
