245 - Vintage Parker "Big Red" Pen with Original Canister Packaging 20th century Artist/Designer/Manufacturer: The Parker Pen Company Materials: Plastic (lucite/acrylic resin), gold-plated metal trim, and cardboard packaging Marking(s): Stamped with the Parker arrow clip logo and "Parker Made in U.S.A." around the cap band; packaging marked "Parker Men's Big Red Writes Again! Soft Tip Pen." Cataloguer's Note: Introduced in 1970, the "Big Red" revival series was created as a nostalgic, modern tribute to the company’s legendary 1920s Duofold "Big Red" fountain pen. Rather than a traditional fountain nib, this 1970s iteration features a reloadable felt/soft tip writing system. The pen retains its iconic look with a bold orange-red resin barrel, flat black end finials, and a gold-plated ball-end clip. This item is accompanied by its original pop-art style cylindrical pop-top presentation tube bearing the promotional tagline "Big Red Writes Again!" Pen: L 5.5" Packaging: L 6" x W 1.75" Good pre-owned condition, needs ink. Unless otherwise stated, all information provided is the opinion of our specialists.
