Up for sale is a certified "Grail Pen" for high-end writing instrument investors – an exceptionally rare vintage Parker 75 Platinum Plated fountain pen with a Fine (F) Nib. This historic piece comes complete with its authentic, vintage blue velvet presentation case with gold trim.
Historical Context & Rarity:
This specific Platinum edition was manufactured in a very short, limited production window between 1971 and 1973, immediately following the discontinuation of the legendary but short-lived Parker T1 (Titanium) model. Released in a small, restricted batch to capture the high-end luxury market of the early 1970s, this is widely considered one of the rarest and most desirable variants in the entire Parker 75 timeline.
Key Features & Condition:
- Authentic Vintage Condition: This is a used pen with genuine history. It shows normal, honest signs of age and previous pocket wear (micro-scratches on the platinum body). No deep dings, cracks, or personalized engravings.
- Fine (F) Nib: The original Parker nib is clean, straight, and in excellent writing condition.
- 100% Fully Functional: Thoroughly flushed and cleaned. It is completely ready to write and holds ink properly.
- Original Presentation Box: Included, showing typical vintage shelf wear, with the interior blue velvet well-preserved.
An incredible opportunity to secure a genuine, small-batch Parker 75 Grail Pen from the highly collectible post-T1 era. A true museum piece that will continuously appreciate in value. [
