I know John Danza (FPB Advisor with focus on very early Parker pens) was just dying to see some threads on Parker's "51".
Parker "51" is amongst the most collected old pens out there. You likely know that the early (1941-1948) pens with Vacumatic filling system are "known" in 7 colors:
Common colors:
- India Black
- Dove Gray
- Cordovan
- Cedar Blue
- Buckskin Beige
- Yellowstone Yellow (Mustard)
- Nassau Green.
So...
Would anyone care that I've now seen my first vac-fil "51" in another Aerometric color... Burgundy?
