Parker 61 Repair

[jr_vi]

Hi. I haven't posted in this section before. I do enjoy reading all of the comments but do not have the knowledge and experience to make comments. I enjoy using my fountain pens. Daily writers are a Parker 51 from the 1940s and a Schaeffer Targus from the 70s. I also use a newer pen with a German nib and barrel, etc. made in Japan.

However, I do have a parker 61 that needs repair. The section has developed the crack that is common to these pens. I am looking for references to anyone I contact to ask if they are able to do the repair. Ideally I would like to keep the pen the same colour, grey, but I would be open to a shop that can replace with a matching section and barrel.

Thanks in advance.

Jim

Quite a few repair services could handle this, but I suggest writing first to Danny Fudge (link) and seeing if he will do it. I take it you're talking about the hood, and he did a similar repair on a Parker 21 for me, finding one of the correct color.

Thank you. Email has been sent to ask.
