Vintage Parker 45 Fountain Pen

I take a close look at my friend's father's 1960's era Parker 45 fountain pen. I had to clean it up since it hadn't been in use in decades. I take a look at the history of the Parker 45 and Parker's collaboration with the Shanghai Hero Pen Company which eventually gave rise to the Parker 45-like Hero 800, Hero 616 and Moonman M80. I demonstrate inking the pen and do a writing sample.
