Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this Vintage circa 1973 Parker 75 Sterling Silver Crosshatch Grid pattern Fountain Pen with Gold Plate Trim and 14K Gold Fine Point USA NIB. This fountain pen has been thoroughly taken apart, ultrasonically cleaned, put back together, and is now in excellent writing condition.

I have cleaned and polished the barrel and cap to bring back the shine of the metal. This Parker 75 displays brightly and in incredibly great condition. This Parker 75 is a Crosshatch Grid Pattern model made between 1964 to 1993 - this one will date to the earliest, 1973 due to key features on the pen which are the enameling in the grids, dished tassies, metal converter, section with angle indicator, "F" nib/feed imprint, being made in the USA (not France), and the imprint on the cap banding. This Parker 75 measures 5 1/8" capped and 5 5/8" posted.

The fountain pen cap and barrel are in magnificent condition with no dings, dents, or repairs with the slip cap always securing tightly to the barrel. The Cap Lip is stamped with, "PARKER PARKER LOGO STERLING SILVER CAP & BARREL MADE IN U.S.A.". There are no monograms or personalizations to either the cap or barrel.

This Parker 75 has an ink converter filling unit and I have tested with water and fills as it should. It is a Parker factory ink converter.

The pen is fitted with a 14K Fine nib and is stamped, "PARKER 14K POINT USA". When measuring the actual tip of the 14K nib it measures at .54mm when measuring with digital calipers. The back of the feed shows the letter "F" for fine so it measures as it was designated to be. When writing a sample, this NIB writes with a fine line/stroke. The stroke measures between .45mm to .56mm when measured with digital calipers under medium pressure. The sample was done with the actual pen in the images that are listed for sale. The writing sample was used by dipping the NIB in Parker Blue Ink.

This Parker 75 Crosshatch Grid Fountain Pen is a beautiful clean and classy fountain pen. I would consider this Parker 75 to grade in Near Mint Condition. It will be hard to beat a better Parker 75 pen than this one. It is ready to write or just add to your writing arsenal collection.
