Description from Nathaniel

Here is something you don't see every day. In fact, this is the first (and only) one we've seen in 20 years of business! It is the Parker Touche. Originally released in 1966, it was a felt-tip marker that filled using Parker's fountain pen cartridges. It was built around the Parker 45 pen design. We think it was a clever idea. However, we suspect it likely failed because the felt tips would wear out after a couple of cartridges of ink. This one appears to be in really good shape. Maybe a little light wear. The felt tip is there and seemingly still firm. However, we aren't sure how long it will last if it got put back into use. We didn't soak it or disturb it in any way. This Parker Touche might be better served as a museum piece. 13.6cm capped.
