help - identify this pen

[henderob]

I saw an interesting pen that I'd like to purchase. Problem is, I have no idea what type of pen it is. It was shown on a PBS program about neutrinos. I managed to capture a small portion of the video showing the pen, and have posted it on my website here: http://www.venganza.org/pen3.avi (in divx format). I was wondering if one of you pen experts could take a look at the video (it is about 20 seconds long, and 1mb in size), and possibly identify it, or point me in the right direction.

 

Thanks!

Well, I'm no expert at all, but it looks a bit like a Parker 51 with a small part of the hood missing...

Looks like a damaged 51 to me as well, but I may be wrong.

"51" damaged by neutrinos? Now that is a hard-to-find-pen.

It is too generic to be able to discern a specific pen from the video. While it could be a trimmed Parker 51, I'd guess that it is more likely a similar pen with hooded nib like an Aurora 88 or other Italian vintage pen that was modeled on the P51.

it does not lok like a parker to me, from the configuration of the hood.
