I have for sale today

1.) A Parker 51 Vacumatic in Black with a Fine 14k nib. It has a grey Lustraloy cap with a blue diamond clip. Is missing the Jewel and needs to be restored. Light scuffs and scratches, nothing major. $75

2.) A Parker 51 Vacumatic in Black with a fine 14k nib. Dated T6. It's got a grey Lustraloy cap that's missing the clip and Jewel, and also needs to be restored. The section has one scratch, otherwise its in pretty good shape for a 60 year old pen. $55

3.) A second quarter of 1943 Parker Vacumatic Debutante(?) in Emerald Pearl. It measures about 120 mm capped. It's a really pretty little pen, it just needs a new sack- a thing I have neither the time or the money to do. $50 (ON HOLD)

4.) A Parker 61 in Grey with a Fine 14k Gold nib. It's only got minor scratches, no dings or dents arrow is intact. It fills and writes well for me, though maybe on the dry side. I don't know anything about the date on this one. $60

5.) Sheaffer Saratoga Snokel Pen and Pencil Set in almost mint condition. It fills with water just fine, and I couldn't find a drop of ink in it. It's got a 14k two tone nib that has F3 on it. $75

I've also got several bottles of Parker Penman Mocha. I'd knock a few dollars of the price I have listed if bought with one of these pens.

Shipping will be $6 and I will combine shipping. Please contact me with questions and offers.

So Tyler didn't restore the vacumatic under warranty?

No, he said it had to be the original owner.

What is the nib like? It is beautiful.

Here you go! It's a smooth fine line. It's a little thicker than the 51, but still what I would consider a fine.

Sorry, I wrote this and then decided I wanted to think about it a bit more... I didn't think I'd hit submit...

3rd FPGeek owner of that pen, congrats! (I bought it first, sold it to mastersmith, and now...) Maybe we should pass it around to everyone here (;))

Gah, FINE... I'll take it!

Can you please pm me your address? I notice that your profile says Spain. The shipping to would be higher if that's the case.

Dear Master, is the Parker 61 still available? And if so, some pics would be welcome. Thanks! Breck

Well, the pen is still available, but I just checked and it has a small crack in the section that leaks ink.

OUCH! That's too bad. Still sections can be found and the pen refurbished. Good luck!
