PARKER VP

VPs were not made for long, they are sort of a compilation of several Parkers - a predecessor to the 75, they incorporate a similar nib and the adjustable section, the pseudo-aerometric filling system of the 51s and a look easily confused with a 61 until you remove the cap and see the open style instead of hooded nib!

The VP has an adjustable section with markings so you can turn the nib section to comfortably fit your hand, and an aerometric type filler using a clear acrylic insert instead of the rubber sac used in the 51 and 21 series pens.

Parker 45 Fountain Pens have been a mainstay of the Parker line since the late 1960s and are still made today for the UK market. Well made, reasonably priced and all around good writers, the Parker 45 makes a great pen for everyday use or for someone just getting started with fountain pens.

Parker 45s are cartridge/converter fill. Converters are available separately - we have both original and current production converters to fit these pens. Complimentary ink cartridges are included with each Parker 45 purchased.


Vintage Parker 45 Pens

PK1813
Parker - PK1813

Parker 45 (?) Fountain Pen - very early, dare I say transitional type model. The barrel, section and nib are identical to the Eversharp pens that evolved into the Parker 45. Metal cap is the typical matte st/steel finish. Clip is polished steel and exactly the same length and design as on the regular Parker 45s - but there are no feathers stamped on the top part of the clip - just a plain, smooth clip. Cap edge is marked Parker on the front lower edge and the back edge carries the Parker "oval-arrow" logo with Made in USA below. Semi exposed steel nib in fine point. No converter with this pen, not sure which one it would have been! Very unusual and in excellent condition with exception of a small mark on cap below the clip end.

Note the smooth clip on the left compared to a typical Parker 45 clip on the right with arrow feathers.

Refilling your
Vintage Mechanical Pencils

Most mechanical pencils made before the late 1960s and some even after that are refilled by feeding lead in from the Point End. Those that feed from the barrel (below the eraser) are a fairly modern invention! Don't be fooled by leads in the barrel, in older pencils, that was simply a space to store a few extra leads, but that's it - just storage. As always with vintage writing instruments, exceptions will crop up!

The instruction below are from a Sheaffer package insert, but apply to most older mechanical pencils.

Pencil Refill Instructions

We carry a variety of pencil leads - click here.
