Help Identifying Pen Very Much Appreciated

Recommended Posts

Hi all

 

My Grandmother and I had this very heartfelt chat in which by the end of it she decided to give me her Parker Pen she has had for many years. I was very touched as I don't think she has been able to fill it with ink, but she always carries it around in her handbag, always :')

 

Anyway I have it now and would be very keen to know what kind of pen this is so I can fill it up, go over to my Grandmothers and just slyly bring it out and start writing something haha.

The inscriptions read " THE PARKER PEN CO LTD LONDON ENGLAND","TO FILL, PRESS RIBBED BAR AT LEAST 5 TIMES"

 

If anyone on this website could lend me their keen eye I would be ever so grateful :)

From the photos, your pen needs some work to the nib, as it looks to be bent down at an angle, it should be straighter, i.e. imagine a center line through the pen, the nib sould be in line with that.

Also the clip needs to be against the body of the pen.

      ...random aside - I still have some 30 rolls of unused, long-expired Kodachrome 64 film (35mm). They have been frozen since 2009. No idea why I have held on to them for this long, but I guess I'm hoping for a miracle. I too have never developed colour film but I still d&p my B&W to this day. As a passion, of course.

      Thanks for the info (I only used B&W film and learned to process that).   Boy -- the stuff I learn here!  Just continually astounded at the depth and breadth of knowledge in this community! Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      >Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color,<   I'm sure they were, and my answer assumes that. It just wasn't likely to have been Kodachrome.  It would have been the films I referred to as "other color films." (Kodachrome is not a generic term for color film. It is a specific film that produces transparencies, or slides, by a process not used for any other film. There are other color trans

      @Ceilidh -- Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color, not just B&W like I learned to process.  Whether they were doing the processing of the film themselves in one of the darkrooms, or sending their stuff out to be processed commercially?  That I don't actually know, but had always assumed that they were processing their own film.
