A Parker Eversharp Desk Set Ball Point Pen

Box says "A Division Of The Parker Pen Company" so it must be 1957 or after.

Does anyone have any experience with these? I have not seen one before

I have a somewhat similar pen in front of me right now. Mine is part of a two-pen Parker desk set that has a Parker 45-based fountain pen and a ballpoint. Mine have gold furniture and a gold ring at the mid section.

I have a pen and box that matches the one you show.

 

The styling is similar, but side by side, these are quite a bit shorter than the ballpoint desk pens made for the Parker 45 or late Parker 51 desk pen sets, but all do take a Jotter-style refill.

 

A Parker/Eversharp 1965 color brochure lists the pen as Model 006 - the Point *7 Desk Ball Pen. It was available separately for $1.49 or with your choice of a round plastic stand with a simple hole for the pen ($2.49) or either a square or oval black "crystal" stand with brass swivels ($6.95). Available in black, light blue and red.

 

There was a matching Point *7 Cartridge Desk Pen in the same line, topped off with the Parker 45-family removable nib. That's something I'm still looking for - it would be similar to the short version of the P45 desk pen barrel but with a short silver tail rather than the exaggerated long gold tail, and of course it might be red or blue, which I think would be a giveaway.

      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
