Hello B&B!

Today for sale I've got a Parker "51" Special in black with Octanium medium nib.

This is a great pen if you're considering getting into the hobby of fountain pens. The pen is smooth, and in excellent condition. I love this pen, but I have got to sell it in order to make way for new additions to my pen collection.

The only damage to this pen is purely cosmetic, in the form of a very small ding on the cap just to the left of the clip.

My price is $60 shipped CONUS. Will ship internationally at cost. PayPal only please.

Please e-mail me if you've got any questions or would like any more pictures.

Thanks for looking!

It is a type of aerometric, with a strap over the sac..... much like the "21".... The barrel is lucite like the regular "51" but the nib is not gold..... all in all a great writer

Thanks for answering that for me! I wasn't able to watch the thread very closely.

Congrats to both seller and buyer. The Parker 21 was my first fountain pen (thanks again, Brian). From the writing sample pic this one looks like a really nice writer. You're going to like this one Dunny.

Just as well this hit and passed before I realized it was there.

I have a Cross, some Sheaffers and some Pilot 78G's; that Parker would have been a great addition, except I'm broke just now. Sigh.....
