In 2002 Parker reintroduced the famed Parker “51” as a Special Edition.\u00a0 The retail price was $350.00 and authorized dealers were not allowed to discount.\u00a0 The pen came in a deluxe simulated snakeskin box, similar to those found in England during the fifties.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

The pen\u00a0was available\u00a0in two colors, Vista Blue and Black.\u00a0 The caps had the famous Empire Design done in Sterling Silver with a reproduction of the venerable Blue Diamond clip.\u00a0 The Vista Blue was only available in all Sterling Silver, while the black pen only came with Gold Vermeil Sterling Cap.\u00a0The filler was the standard cartridge or converter.\u00a0 The nib was 14k, available only in medium or fine.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Under the hood, the pen sported a standard nib, and not the traditional nib.\u00a0 The inner cap clutch was completely redesigned and the “pearl” jewels were very different from the vintage versions.\u00a0 Early barrels had a design flaw and would crack.\u00a0 Parker replaced the barrels free of charge.\u00a0 The pen created much controversy in the pen collecting community, as it was not a faithful reproduction of the pen and it was expensive.\u00a0 Overall the pen is a great writer and has done relatively well in the marketplace.<\/span><\/p>\n
