This is a Parker 51 Flighter, an Aerometric filler fountain pen with a Lustraloy cap and barrel c. 1950s. Introduced in 1949, the 5 3/8 inch long pen's stainless steel cap has a thin gold filled band and is stamped PARKER on the front and MADE IN U.S.A. on the back. The clip is gold filled and the cap top jewel is pearlescent. The 14 karat gold nib is hidden under the black section. Later in the 1950s, the cap band was deleted. These pens were advertised at $20.75 retail in 1949-1953, $29.75 with the matching pencil.

Closer view of the vintage pen I bought. Able to budget for it because it is not pristine, but still beautiful, still a beautiful writing experience. The nib is flexible fine point. I love the brown tortoise finish. #grailpen #penaddict #fountainpen #vintagefountainpen #vintagepelikan #pelikanbrowntortoise #flexiblenib #sfpenshow2019 #penshowhaul https://www.instagram.com/p/B1hLZNLjOd3/?igshid=7umb0je1bjxv

Now here is a Parker you dont see every day. A rare Parker Doric mechanical pencil. Beautifully designed with inspiration taken from Grecian columns. Truly one fine writing instrument. These pens were produced for only a couple years making them even more rare. . Tag a friend who loves Mechanical Pencils. .
