Product Name Parker 51 Vacumatic
Manufacturer and Year Parker - 1946 (imprint shows a 6)
Length Full size, 5-3/8"

Color Dove grey body, 1/8 14k gold filled cap with an even pattern of lines up and down it. Blue diamond gold filled clip (blue paint is good). Pearlescent cap jewel.
Nib MEDIUM FINE nib is just a little wider than the fines we usually see on a Parker 51. 14k gold nib with lots of iridium.
Condition Excellent condition. There's just a tiny dent in the upper cap, just to the right of the clip, and a couple of very minor scratches on it as well. Some small scratching on the cap jewel, and a few tiny scratches on the barrel of the pen, but it looks very clean. There's just a tiny bit of plating wear on the very edges of the clip (visable in photos below). It's a really beautiful piece in great condition.
