Looks a little cheesy... your probably right... With a name like Parker 51, sounds like it couldn't have been a good seller....

No, but I'll pay you $10 dollars to take that abomination of a fountain pen off your hands along with that miserable shaving razor. Does the razor include some Fusion cartridges?

I also have been afraid that a fountain pen AD may be coming on since visiting this forum. I have been halfway hunting a usable vintage pen the past few weeks.....

If this is a contribution contest then how would one participate? I would love to have such a pen and money go to this forum at the same time if this is the case.

Ok... I just became a contributor 5 secs ago, so if that is what it takes to get said pen and razor then good.

If not I am glad I can support such a forum and this thread reminded me I need to do so.

That's a fine looking pen - nearly identical to the one I carry every day.

Great way to drum up some B&B financial support!

As a side note, I have My great grandfather's, great grandmother's, grandfather's, and grandmother's fountain pens. All are engraved Parker 51s, except my great grandmother's. It's a Vacumatic engraved with her name.

It is your pen! :lol:

But after 7:00 PM this Saturday it's going to belong to someone else.

Someone who has made a $20 contribution to B&B and has also posted here. (http://badgerandblade.com/vb/showthread.php?t=129319)
