Condition
|
Excellent working example of the classic Parker 51 Vac. Signs of use and handwear, with a few scratches, but still very solid and ready to be used every day. Some staining in the barrel below the blind cap. The cap is nice with no dents or dings, however it is heavily personalized as follows: MELBOURNE G EDWARDS, 20 YEARS SAFE DRIVING The barrel is personalized JRJ, more evidence the cap isn't original to the body. |
