英雄金笔 大同英雄 您好！您提到的“英雄金笔”和“大同英雄”其实指向的是同一个著名的中国钢笔品牌——英雄钢笔，只是在不同时期的称呼。 这是一个非常经典的中国品牌故事，下面为您详细解释： 品牌演变史：“大同英雄”到“英雄” 1. “大同”时期 (1931年)    · 英雄金笔厂的前身是华孚金笔厂，于1931年在上海成立。    · 在1950年代初期，该厂曾使用过 “大同英雄” 作为其钢笔的品牌名称之一。这个名称带有鲜明的时代特色，“大同”寓意着“世界大同”的理想。 2. 更名为“英雄”    · 随着“英雄”品牌，特别是英雄100型金笔（为赶超美国“派克51”而研制）的巨大成功，“英雄”这个品牌名称变得家喻户晓，深入人心。    · 为了统一品牌形象，后来就去掉了“大同”，直接使用 “英雄” 作为品牌名。华孚金笔厂也随后正式更名为英雄金笔厂。 所以，“大同英雄”可以看作是“英雄”钢笔在特定历史时期的一个曾用名或前身。现在人们普遍称之为“英雄金笔”。 关于“英雄”钢笔 · 辉煌历史：英雄钢笔曾是中国钢笔行业的绝对王者，是国民钢笔，也是无数人工作和学习的必备品。在计划经济时代，拥有一支英雄金笔是很有面子的事情。 · 经典型号：   · 英雄100：最经典的金笔型号，14K金笔尖，至今仍是许多钢笔爱好者的收藏和使用佳品。   · 英雄616：性价比极高的铱金笔，被称为“国民钢笔”，书写顺滑，价格亲民。   · 英雄329：另一款经典的铱金笔，造型秀气。 · 现状：近年来，英雄钢笔经历了起伏，面临国外品牌和中性笔的冲击，但它依然是中国人心中重要的文化符号。许多人在寻找童年记忆或追求书写体验时，仍会选择英雄钢笔。 总结 · 大同英雄 = 英雄金笔的早期或历史称呼。 · 您现在在市场上购买到的，无论是叫“英雄”还是标有“大同英雄”（通常是一些复刻或怀旧版），其根源都来自于同一个品牌——上海英雄金笔厂。 如果您手中有一支老款的“大同英雄”钢笔，它很可能具有一定的收藏价值哦！

Old advertisement from 1930 from British Malaya (now Malaysia)

Parker 61 was unlike any other pen at that time or even to this day. It had a different way of filling it with ink. Instead of using a plunger, pump, syringe or any mechanical method, the 61 relied on its capillary ink filling system where you immerse the unscrewed rear end of the pen into a bottle of ink and it will fill up via absorbtion and ink will go.  This is a nice Parker 61 Rainbow. It is the top of the range Heirloom pens sported a rainbow cap made from alternate layers of different colours of gold. The effect is very striking, and the pens are much less common than the standard Classic and Custom pens. The Heirloom caps were discontinued in 1968 due to high production costs and high reject rates. the telfon tube. Much like a piece of cloth which absorbs liquid, this does the same. There are only two models with the Rainbow effect namely this Parker 61 and Parker 75.

I have always wanted to find the German made limited edition Parker Wood pen. In 1980 Parker in Germany produced a large (143 mm) wood limited edition pen with a huge stylised clip. There were eight different wood finishes offered and they were sold in numbered boxes made from the same wood as the pens. There were meant to be made 2 000 numbered pens of each wood, but there seems to have been objections from Parker in the US and production was haltered, so no-one really knows how many pens were shipped. Also some were clearly shipped without the number on the pens, or in the boxes. The cap had a very large gold coloured, wooden clip in the shape of an arrow that protruded from the top of the cap.  Perhaps one of the strangest designs of a Parker pen, some finishes are considered very rare. This jumbo pen reminds me of the early Parker Giant.  As a fountain pen collector, I really like the fountain pen design as it really aimed to break away from the norm like the early Pa...

Parker 75 Regency fountain pen, more commonly known as the "Rainbow" 75, 18K gold-filled barrel and cap is perhaps the rearest Parker 75 pens. It was a very complicated and difficult manufacturing process that resulted in many rejects, and in turn, an excessive manufacturing cost. This gave way to a very short product life. Beside this Parker 75 Rainbow, there is another Parker 61 Rainbow. Parker 75 Design and Features: - The Parker 75 featured the distinctive "Sterling Cicelé" grid pattern, which was created by cutting a grid into the sterling silver body and then staining the grooves black. - It had a triangular grip section, similar to the design of the Lamy Safari, which provided a comfortable and ergonomic writing experience. - Other notable design elements included the gold-plated trim and the iconic Parker arrow clip. Parker 75 Variants and Materials: - Beyond the standard Sterling Cicelé model, Parker produced the 75 in a variety of other materials and finis...
