Full Version: Help in clarifying ID on pen, please!
This pen has some markings on the barrel but other than these I'm not certain how to separate it from other Parker pens in this family.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi Zoe,
I'm no expert, but I would say a 1946 vacumatic major (single gold band, blue diamond) . Furthermore, I would guess it to be a 3rd generation. It does not have a barrel diamond. It probably has a plastic filler unit under the blind cap. Correct?
I love the golden brown colour! A wonderful pen. I have a junior in the same colour.
Enjoy the pen. Hope the diaphragm's OK.
Best wishes,
Rob

Rob, thanks so much for the added information.
Yes, it has a plastic filler unit under the blind nib.
Actually, I am thinking seriously of selling her--I don't use this pen and it is a pity to have it sleeping in a box. I cleaned her up, and she seems to be working fine.
