I am new to collecting pens & have just ordered a book through Barnes & noble, but I'm not sure if its the best book for collecting, any recommendations
on a good book for collecting & info on this pen would help,,. I think I'm going to post it for sale, but not only knowing a good price to ask for it, or how to accurately describe it
would be great,, it appears never used. & the color is amazing !!!

Thanks in advance !

I can't tell you much not being experienced, but I can say that 61s well are double-jewelled. Very nice pen!

Pretty pen. You can get an idea of the value from ebay and looking at the marketplace/classifieds here. If you think about it let me know when you are ready to see, I have been looking for just such a pen.

Nice one with the narrow clutch ring, pity about the teflon though as it is uninked.

It looks very clean and color is quite good. It is not a Rainbow cap or otherwise "decorative" cap and does not appear to have a first year emblem. Those can go from $140 -200 depending on condition. Yours might fetch as much as $125. A reasonable quicker sale might be @ $90 -95. IMBO (in my boastful opinion;)

I have that color with the rainbow cap. You might want to hang on to it if you are thinking "collection".

that's quite a beautiful pen! I love the color. What imprints does it say on the cap? The teflon degradation will have a slight impact, but otherwise that pen looks mint/uninked.

The only imprint on the cap is PARKER & a very small MADE IN USA,,

The ones with the thin ring are also known as 'Mk1'.

Nice pen though, especially as it's uninked.

Kind Regards,

Jaglover,

The color of your pen is known as Surf Green.
