Can anyone identify the middle pen? I know it is a Parker (a cheap one) but what is it? I probably bought it new about 10 years ago.

Thanks

It's a Parker 25. I had two FP/BP sets: black matte and silver. Thought I was the best.

Thanks so much Gary for your help and pointing me to the other thread. The pen must be older than I thought - maybe I bought it 25 years ago!!

Best wishes

Listen, I was just trying to help, not get whacked with a reference to my age!!
You're right though. I would have bought my sets between 1979-82. Now they're broken and battered.
Kind of like me.

If its any solace to you, I bet I'm a hell of a lot more battered than you!! But my pen is in mint condition still, as I've hardly ever used it!! Maybe I should have spent the last 25 years stored in a pen case somewhere ...
