The Parker 51 Premium turquoise GT ballpoint pen. The designation "51" was no coincidence; until then, Parker had given all its models a name, but had come to the conclusion that if a model had a name, that name detracted from the brand name. For the new pen, a number would therefore be more suitable, also because a number has the same meaning in all languages. A trial series of the newly developed pen was launched in 1939, which was the 51st year of the existence of the Parker Pen Company. The pen was therefore given the model number "51" - according to the official explanation from the factory.
The new "51" is identical in silhouette to the original. The difference lies in the shape of the nib and the way the pen closes. The nib is not tubular but has a traditional nib blade, although this nib is completely hidden in the pen's front section. This construction ensures that the pen always starts easily and does not dry out quickly. Furthermore, the new Parker 51 has a screw cap.
For those interested in reading all the ins and outs about this new Parker 51 there is a wonderful book available that reviews all 51 models.
If you choose the engraving option, please note that the engraving will be placed on the pen holder.
