I'm sure this is old hat to an experienced Parker person but it may be helpful to a new collector. It helps to know what they should look like.
Of course there is nothing wrong with a silver frame Parker with colors mostly or entirely worn off. The issue to many collectors comes when a gun that originally had the muted Meriden charcoal case colors is redone with the bright, tiger striped cyanide case colors applied by more recent restorers.
