ok #fountainPen / #fountainPens folks
i was just given an old Parker
can anyone help ID? I've never even looked at Parkers haha
edit to add so it's not hiding in the comments: it's MINIMUM 40 years old
edit again: so I think the giver might have mixed something up? As @me and @dave have guessed, it appears to be a Parker Urban, a pen introduced in either 2007 or 2009 (have read two different numbers now)
@dave pointed me at this inklode.com/fountain-pens/park… which really is a dead ringer for it down to the nib (other than the silver rather than gold)
So.....guess I will talk to her again? Weird cause she was quite sure it was from high school or college, and she's in her late 50s or 60s

The Parker Urban fountain pen is a fun, yet classy writing instrument that is a fine addition to a burgeoning collection.Adam (Inklode | fountain pens, inks, and more)

in reply to lee • •@lee I believe that's a Parker GT Urban. They still make it in ballpoint but not fountain pen any more.
I have two of them because I lost the original, replaced it, and then found it again.

in reply to Jonathan Lamothe • • •@me it sounds like from this: parkerpens.net/urban.html
that the Urban is rom 2007 onwards, which entirely rules it out
