Hello! I'm not very knowledgeable about vintage pens, bescause I preffer pens without scratches on them, so I restrict myself at buying mostly modern pens, but I found this Parker 75 at a reasonable price in a pretty good condition. Is this an original exemple? I'm curious because it looks in too good of a condition to me. It is posted as NOS though, and no box.

Yes, and it is an old enough model that it has the ring at the nib, used to adjust ink flow. Later models did not have this feature.

It has no notable corrosion on the ring, which was a known problem when certain inks were used in the pen.

The chrome ring's purpose was so the user can rotate the nib into a position comfortable for the user.....Nada on flow.....

First year for ring with zero 1964 and in 1968 the zero was omitted.....For more detailed info re sections..mosey on over

nice one, lucky buyer who got it!

wait...do you think... it might be our friend from some threads ago?

so we managed to convince him that NOS 75s still exist?!...

and he's overcome his fears of buying infected used pens?! :lticaptd:

 

(incidentally, Freddy, Joe's Garage is one of my favourite Zappa's, don't have in LP though (drat), but do have Grand Wazoo in LP... :) )

      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
