Product Description
Type | Vintage mechanical pencil, working very well |
Product Name | Parker 51 Pencil |
Manufacturer and Year |
Parker - 1947-8 (That's when they switched to the so-called transitional arrow clip) |
Length | Standard size, 5-3/16" |
Filling System | 0.9mm leads. Extends in the traditional twist-method. |
Color | A warm light brown which we believe is buckskin, though the color doesn't match the buckskin fountain pen we have in inventory, with gold filled cap and trim. The cap is lined with a pattern of converging lines, and has a pearlescent cap jewel. 1/8 14k gold filled. |
Personalization | None |
Condition |
Excellent, with just a little brassing on the raised edge of the clip and the tip of the cone. A few marks in the plastic, but no cracks or serious scratches. The lead extends properly but does not retract. |
