The colour contrasts well with the Gold fill and gives the pen a very classic, distinguished appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 75 features an adjustable nib position, it can be rotated to give the best contact with the paper for a particular user.  The gripping section and feed were upgraded in the late 1980s to this more rounded version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pen is a cartridge\/converter filler, it is supplied with the correct screw type Parker ink converter and a new ink cartridge so it is ready to write in either configuration.  The hard Parker box, probably original, is also in pristine condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e the 14Ct.Gold nib produces a smooth, medium line, perhaps a little on the fine side.  It has a pleasing 'softness' that helps make the pen a very comfortable writer. Parker described the 75 nibs as being 'semi flexible' but I think 'soft' describes them more accurately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Parker 75 is recognised as one of the best fountain pens ever made in terms of style and performance, a mint codition Laque collection pen is now very collectable. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Collectablepens","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60373515370880,"sku":null,"price":145.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/4239\/files\/P1210186.jpg?v=1794477993","url":"https:\/\/collectablepens.co.uk\/products\/parker-75-laque-black-1990","provider":"Collectablepens","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
