Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this Very Scarce Parker 51 Double Jewel Fountain Pen with a 14K Solid Gold smooth "Heirloom" cap and Black barrel. This fountain pen has been thoroughly taken apart, ultrasonically cleaned, put back together, and is now in great writing condition.

NOTE: This fountain pen is correct with the 14K cap, 14K Clip, and 14K Blind Cap Tassie. 

I have ultrasonically cleaned the NIB, feed, collector, hood, and breather tube. Replaced the old rubber diaphragm with a new one. This Parker 51 fountain pen measures 5 3/8" in length capped and 6" posted. 

The fountain pen cap, barrel, and hood are in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, dings, dents, major scratching, or repairs. The cap is excellent with no significant scratching, dings, or denting. The barrel is very clean, again with no damage, nicks, scratches, or repairs. The jewels have plastic pearlized jewels that have been polished to a high shine. The clutch ring retains the gold wash centering. The cap is stamped with, "14K GOLD MADE IN U.S.A.". The barrel is stamped with, PARKER 51 MADE IN THE U.S.A. with a dating code of 5 (for 1945) in the 3rd Quarter". There are no monograms or personalizations on either the barrels or caps.

The Vacumatic Filling System has been completely restored and works wonderfully. When testing the Filling System with water - roughly 8-10 presses and the filling unit will nearly fill. The filling unit operates as it was originally intended to and without issue.

The actual writing portion (iridium) of the 14K Parker NIB has a fine point measuring roughly .45mm when measured with digital calipers. When writing a sample with this NIB, it writes with a fine line of approximately .44mm to .47mm when measuring with digital calipers. The writing 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 Quink Blue Ink.

I have to say this Parker 51 set is in incredible condition with the solid 14K gold cap displaying perfectly - if you are a Parker 51 collector, it is a must-have set for your collection. I would consider this set in Excellent+ to Near Mint Condition. This is a GRAIL-type Parker 51 fountain pen - it is ready to write or just add to your prized writing arsenal collection.
