Looking For A 51


zenhikester

Recommended Posts

I am looking to trade for a Parker 51. Not looking for a showpiece, but not a restoration project either. In Trade I have an Esterbrook J pen and pencil set, in grey. The pen has a 9556 nib, has been resacced and is in spectacular condition- no chips, cracks. The clip is tight, the jewels are nice and tight. The top of the box is broken at the corner seams.

Sorry about the pics, not really adept at it. As far as a Parker, I'd really like a fine nib, not really picky about the cap as long it is correct to the pen. Users are fine as long as it works.

 

Edited to add: I have a nice Lamy Safari, charcoal, with medium nib I can toss in for the right pen.

 

All the Best

Dave

      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
