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)

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      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
