PA3777 Parker 75 Cisele Sterling Silver (Medium)

Date: c1960s

Size: Capped - 128mm; posted - 147mm.

A beautiful and sought-after Parker 75 in the most popular finish for these pens, the sterling silver cap and barrel with the "cisele" squares decoration.  This is an American Parker 75, probably from the late 1960s, with the indented barrel and cap tassies, and a white metal graduated nib collar.  It is fitted with a 14 carat solid gold nib in a medium point.  All the trim is gold filled, and as far as I can see, completely undamaged.  The barrel and cap have no dings and no noticeable scratches or marks either.  I really can't find any damage on this pen at all.  Starting with the cap, the gold filled tassie has an indented end.  The polished cap band is imprinted "PARKER", "STERLING SILVER CAP AND BARREL" and "MADE IN USA".  The barrel has the same indented gold filled tassie.  The section is in black plastic with a circular cross-section and a very ergonomic indented ribbed grip.  The nib is 14 carat yellow gold and in a medium point.  The forward end of the section has a white metal band, and as with most Parker 75s the nib and feed will twist around so that you can angle it at the correct angle for you.  This pen is a cartridge/converter filler, accepting standard Parker cartridges, or you can use the original Parker squeeze-bar ink converter that is already fitted to the pen.  

I have fully serviced this pen.  It writes with a very  smooth, medium width wet line.  

A quintessential 1960s and 1970s Parker, and a very sought-after model, being the perennially popular sterling silver Cisele finish.
