Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Picked up two parkers from an old pen shop in chennai, One was a gold plated parker 95.

 

The second one is a small sized pen with the name James Dean autographed on it.

 

Am uanble to identify this pen. It has clip like a vector but it is a full steel pen much smaller in size to a sonnet/frontier

 

Can you please help.

The pen itself looks like a Parker Jotter, but the cap looks like the cap of a Parker Vector. Not sure though. It will take someone more knowledgeable than me. Could you upload a picture where the nib is also visible (not just its downside)?

 

Jotter (aka. 15):

The cap is also similar to that of the Rialto, but the barrel doesn't look like a Rialto.

Thank you very much, The nib is like a jotter but the main change in the size of the pen. It is smaller than the standard parker pens

The nib does look like those used in the Jotter/Vector/IM.

 

Here is a picture of my own Jotter, note the difference between the clip. Maybe Parker used to manufacture Jotters with other kinds of clips.

Hello!
Clip is definitely Vector. All the rest is Jotter.
James Dean edition, 2005 (50th anniversary of his death).

IMHO, it's a Jotter with broken clip then repaired with Vector clip. Can't see other option.
I follow this topic to see if someone catches the answer.

Bye!

The Vector caps don't fit on the Jotter, but the clip is Vector desgn, the version used before about '94/ '95.

If both clips have a similar fixing, a single philips head screw, then it could be done.

But the clip doesn't 'sit' properly aginst the cap, the angle is a giveaway that something is not right.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
