For sale is a vintage lot of three (3) authentic Parker "51" desk fountain pens. These mid-century classic writing instruments feature the highly reliable second-generation Aerometric squeeze-filling system (introduced by Parker in 1948) rather than the earlier Vacumatic mechanisms.
All three pens feature sleek, glossy black tapered lucite desk bodies and polished silver-tone clutch rings.
## Markings & Authenticity
* Internal Filler Sleeves: Clearly engraved with: PARKER "51"
* Pen Barrels: Explicitly stamped near the clutch ring with: PARKER MADE IN U.S.A.
## Condition Report (Selling As-Is / Untested)
* Cosmetic: Good vintage condition overall. The black lucite bodies show minor micro-scratching and light surface wear consistent with age, desktop use, and storage. No deep cracks, major chips, or severe gouges observed.
* Functional: These pens are being sold strictly untested and unrestored, exactly as found. The internal pliable plyglass ink sacs are still housed inside their protective metal guards, but they have not been water-tested or filled. They will likely require a standard internal flush, cleaning, or a tune-up to clear out any dried, decades-old ink before writing.
* Note: This listing includes the three desk pens only; desk bases or stands are not included.
Please review all high-resolution photos closely to verify the exact cosmetic details, stamps, and section conditions before purchasing.
