I was wrong: while I do have a couple of Parker 21s, I was actually talking about Parker 45s; one with an olive body and another with a CT Insignia gold filled body and cap but the nib has a broken tine. Sorry I was wrong. I’ve also picked up a few Parker 75 Cisele fountain pens and love them.
Like I said in the video, I don't mind 51s. But quite honestly, I think I like my 61 better than the 51. I have tried 51s in various filling systems and nibs. They are decent pens but the hype for vintage collectors is overblown and the 61 is, in my opinion, under-rated. The 51 is still a decent choice in vintage, but there are other oft-ignored models as well.
I adore you and haven't forgotten. I will send your package out tomorrow or the next day.
That’s a good pen

@@fountainpenfanaticI updated what I incorrectly stated. I have a Parker 61, but am afraid to try it with the cap band (?) being off inside the 61. I
