Parker " 51 " Hardcover – Import, December 1, 2004

It has been helpful to me

Super.

Possibly one of the most sought-after fountain pens these days, the 'P51' was made in vast numbers and good quality pens are still available - I'm still a novice at collecting - and more importantly using - these pens, but I now have 5, and I'm sure I will collect more. This is a great book - I'd been promising it to myself for a long time and eventually bought it and took it on holiday with me to read. Once I picked it up I couldn't put it down. So much information, so much detail and lovely photographs of drool-worthy pens! And a great written history too. If you have a love for fountain pens and particularly if you collect the Parker 51 - this is essential reading!

Price was scandalous : ask 256£ for a book I paid less then 60£ a few days letter on a pen website a few days later is incredible.Pass your way !....
