Unknown UK Parker

Recommended Posts

Hello

 

This Parker was bought in England and gifted to me. I am pretty much clueless as to the model. Could the all knowing Parker Gurus help me identify it? It is dark Blue, The cap merely says Parker and Made in England. The converter screws in. It appears to never have been inked and has only some very light scratching on the barrel.

 

Thanks in advance!

  That is a lovely blue Parker 45 with  chrome trim and an Octanium nib. I can’t read the nib width on the collar, but if you can, the nib codes are here:

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
