Parker pen photo's

John,

 

I will save everyone seeing these for a third time, but I love your vintage Parkers and the way you display them. I hazard to go back before 1920, both financially and knowledge-wise. The 42 1/2 with the gold is stunning. Thanks to everyone for sharing their collections.

 

Here is my Duofold drawer, with a few others scattered about.

Hi George,

 

Sorry I missed your question earlier. The 51 on the end is a VakPen 51 made by Lynn Sorgatz. This was a fluke buy it now catch on EBay.

Those 51s - the top is a 47 Cedar Blue Vac and the bottom is a 49 Black.

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

I'm a bit of a 'jack of all trades' when it comes to pens, but Parker is my favourite maker. My collection reflects my magpie-like collecting patterns:

Since this thread has revived itself...............

These were some Parker EDs taken a few years ago - the one on the left is actually a sliptop button filler and the colours are not as bad as the flash has made them.

I was going to take a pic of my modest little collection of Parkers, but I think my wife snuck off with my camera!

This one has been my favorite for the past week....

The photo was taken with a, somewhat, hacked together outfit... Its a Canon Digital Rebel (300d) with an EOS/M42 adapter attached to a Pentax auto bellows. The auto bellows has a 100mm f4 bellows Takumar lens on it. If I remember right, the pic was shot at f22 and 5 seconds from approximately 25cm. The extra length really makes a difference with macro stuff!

Thought I would add a few more since the thread is alive again.

 

New to the collection is a Jack Knife Baby 20 with a gold cap band and an SAE crest on it

Three types of Parker clips. From left: Van Valkenberg clip from 1907-1908, Disappearing clip from 1908-1915, Washer clip starting 1915 but patented in 1916 (the clip date is wrong)

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
    • adamselene
      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
