Hello All,
Thanks for allowing me to join the crew.
I got a fountain pen restart several months ago. Since then I've been hunting Parker 51s. So far I've found four hooded Parkers.
Two are 1948 51 Aeromatic Demis with the very fine accounting nibs. One worked after a thorough ammonia soak and clean up. The other, it looked like it had been used as a dart on a dart board, took some professional restoration. This one was refitted with a medium stub. Both are working great now. My wife appropriated one and I got to keep the medium stub.
I found a black 51 Special with a fine nib that works great after the ammonia/water soak and a gentle clean up. The same can be said for a Parker 25 I found at the same time.
Here's where I could use some help.
I found two Underwood fountain pens. Both are lever pens. Both have Underwood inscribed on the clip. The inscription matches the inscriptions/logo type one would find on a classic Underwood typewriter. Do we have anyone on this board that can share some info on Underwood fountain pens?
Thanks, Bob
