This is my first update for 2006. I hope you have all been able to keep your New Year's resolutions intact.
Things have been pretty quiet on the Parker 75 front so this update does not have as many new items as the last one. I hope the next update which takes place after the Chicago Pen Show will be more fruitful.
I am thankful that Francis Meinhardt contributed again to this website by sending me several pictures. First was an advertising piece for the Treasure Gold series which I think was something that never went to print. Next was a flat-tassie silverplated Godron FP with the cap band inscription of "30 micron" instead of "30µ". The third set of pictures was for an unknown model with a black laque barrel and a goldplated Imperial cap inscribed as being made in France.
As always, I welcome your feedback/criticisms on this site. I am always interested in hearing from you, especially if you have some 75 that you don't see here. Even better if you want to sell it to me. If you are looking for a particular 75 or have need of parts, drop me a note. I might just have it. Send me email at the LTW@Parker75.com address.
Thanks for visiting.
