Is This A "45", Please?

Recommended Posts

Hello!

Please may you help me to identify this pen?
80% of it seems "45"ish. But the below part, near the ball looks different, no?
This pen looks quite old. Any idea of the year... and maybe price?
Would really appreciate your help.

Thank you very much (and sorry for my bad English).

I believe that when the Parker 45 is closed, the cap diameter fits the body perfectly, on this picture, the cap diameter is bigger than the body at the part where it sits. Also, the pin at the bottom of the pen should be a little longer. Not that I know Parkers, but I was looking into this particular model and unless they had that much cosmetic variances, this doesn't seem right.

 

Edit: It could be a Parker 45 "Deluxe" https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php/topic/185483-parker-45-deluxe-sold/

It looks like a 45 Arrow to me, but I've never seen one with a metal end to the barrel.

 

Do you know if it was made in the USA or elsewhere?

That's my vote.

 

[EDIT] It's NOT an Arrow FP, I have 3 of those, it surely Could be a matching BP to the Arrow.

Except for the gold tassie (?) On the barrel end it is just like the all plastic made in England 45 I found on the Bay with the factory CI/stub nib. If I recall correctly the all plastic 45 was only made in England. A shot of the nib should settle the question.

Grace and Peace are already yours because God is the Creator of all of life and Jesus Christ the Redeemer of each and every life.

Just in case there are Still doubters, please refer to the attached pic of one of my Arrow FPs.

 

Note;

 

The barrel end Isn't Gold.

 

Though not entirely clear here, there is a Gold trim ring on the bottom of the cap And Also a Gold clutch ring on the pen. Both are visible when the FP is capped. This BP has No bottom Gold clutch ring.

Hello, experts!
For sure, it is a Ball pen.

 

Here comes another picture, with details... in very bad light, sorry.

 

So, Parker 45 Arrow BP, all plastic. Made in England (written on the pen)... circa 1963-64-65.... ???

      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
