Hi Guys
I am looking for some help and advice with this Parker 51 Vacumatic I have just bought on eBay.
Its a Dove Grey model with the Barrel Imprint showing Parker 51 Made in the USA, and a date code of what looks like 4 but the imprint is quite feint so cannot see if there are any dots.
The Cap has the standard Parker Arrow clip and its fitted with the Mark Vac Plunger, so when do you reckon it was made.
Also as you can see in the picture below the blind cap does not fit properly to the barrel and it sits flush on one side but has a slight overhang on the other. I have tried setting the pump unit in different positions but that has made no difference. Should it be flush or has someone fitted a cap of another pen which is what I suspect.
Thanks
Paul
