Exchange For Sale - Item # S021219-04

Description:   Titanium 75 FP prototype or early production
Price:     US $1000

 

This item is even harder to find than the normal Parker titanium model, the T-1.  That is because after Parker decided to kill the T-1, they used up the remaining stock to recast them as the 75.   But this period (1971-72) was a time of transition for Parker's 75 production, including the change from flat to dimpled tassies.

Here is the prototype or early production version of the FP with the characteristic flat tassie.

It comes with a triangular section that has the chrome band with ruled lines but no zero reference mark.  

The nib is a US 14K marked 63 or extra fine.



The condition is mint; it appears to be unused though I am not certain of this.  There are no dings, scratches, or any other physical defects.   Only the pen is being so as I don't have any box or papers.  Oh, the acrylic stand seen in the pictures are not included either.
