The Story
The Parker 45 was initially aimed at the economy market of the 1960s, designed by Don Doman -who also designed the jotter, Parker 75 and many more all time classics - the pen became a stalwart of the Parker line-up. (Excerpt from Parker Pens.net)
Over 20 years of production, the Parker 45 line-up expanded and grew to include the Parker 45 Flighter, Insignia, Custom, GT and other models as popular demand grew for what became known as a reliable and affordable everyday writing pen
The pen is in immaculate condition with a medium14k gold nib, fully serviced and ready to write boxed in its original Parker case with ink converter installed
