Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this Circa 1983 Parker 75 Fountain Pen in the Jasper Red Quartz Laque Pattern with Gold Plate Trim and fitted with a scrace 14K medium left oblique nib. This pen was part of Parker's Laque series which was produced from 1979 to 1983. This fountain pen has been gently used and I would consider it in Near Mint 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 the Jasper Red Quartz Laque model made between 1979 to 1983. 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, no lacquer loss, or repairs with the slip cap always securing tightly to the barrel. The Cap Lip is stamped with, "PARKER MADE IN FRANCE with the Parker logo". 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 it with water and fills as it should. It is a Parker factory ink converter. The Parker 75 will also accept ink Parker cartridges.

The pen is fitted with a 14K Medium Left Oblique nib. The nib/feed is designated 79 which is numbered on the back of the feed. The 79-coded nib is known as a Medium Left Oblique 14K nib - this nib is for those who slant the pen when they write. It has the largest surface on the left side of the point. Intended for left-hand writers. The nib is in fantastic condition and writes smoothly! The actual writing portion (iridium) of the Parker NIB measures roughly 1.31mm when measured with digital calipers. When writing a sample with this NIB, it writes with a .53mm fine line on the horizontal strokes to a 1.37mm double broad stroke on the wide vertical strokes with medium pressure when measuring with digital calipers. I am not used to this nib so I am really unable to present a writing sample in the best context as someone who is experienced in this nib. The writing sample was done with the actual pen in the images listed for sale. The writing sample was used by dipping the NIB in Montblanc Blue Ink.

The Parker 75 comes with a box that displays in Excellent condition.

This Parker 75 Jasper Red Quartz Laque Fountain Pen has a bold color fitted with a very hard-to-find nib point, the medium left oblique type. I would consider this Parker 75 to grade in Near Mint Condition. It is ready to write or just add to your writing arsenal collection.
