- Relax as I show you a very special Parker 51 fountain pens from my collection. This video is essentially part 2 of my previous Parker 51 fountain pen video that can be viewed from the following link:
• The World Famous Parke...
The Parker 51, introduced in 1941, is a fountain pen. Parker’s period advertising called it “The World’s Most Wanted Pen,” a slogan alluding to restrictions on production of pens for the civilian market in the United States during World War II. Parker's continued advertising during the war created a demand for their pens that took several years to fulfill after the end of the conflict.
The pen was named "51" to mark 1939, the company's 51st year of existence, during which development was completed. By giving the pen a number instead of a name, Parker avoided the problem of translating a name into other languages.
The "51" was innovative at the time, with its hooded, tubular nib and multi-finned collector, all designed to work in conjunction with the pen's proprietary ink, allowing the nib to stay wet and lay down an even line with either the ultra-fast drying ink or more traditional inks.
With various refinements, the "51" stayed in production until 1972.
My videos are best enjoyed using headphones or earbuds.
The videos on my UA-cam channel portray some of the typical day-to-day activities that I do for relaxation. This video was produced with relaxation in mind and hopefully has some ASMR qualities. Too much stress is harmful to your well-being and in today’s fast-paced world, stress management is more important than ever, and so I hope this ASMR video acts as a stress reliever for those watching and a sleep-aid for anyone having a difficult time falling asleep.

Youre the only man I watch asmr of. Most guys it weirds me out listening to them slowly whisper, but with you it's like I'm listening to my dad or grandpa.
The first ASMR I was introduced to, and love to this day, was Bob Ross. I'm with you, however...most of the people I watch are women. The only thing that really weirds me out is ear licking, LOL.
Thank you for sharing the story of your great grandmother. It was very moving to hear you talk about her in such a kind manner. Love your videos as always, the rain and thunder in the background created a very cozy mood!
I absolutely agree!
Absolutely by far my favourite ASMR creator. No more rolling in bed until 2-3am and being a zombie the next day. You actually helped turn my life around, thank you!
Me to
SEEing your videos makes me wish everyone could write their comments with a luxury pen in elegant penmanship.~~~~
He has a voice more relaxing than morgan freeman
Zer0 000 I mean that's debatable
You're entire family takes perfect care of everything
My grandmother’s mother was institutionalized in the early 40’s for postpartum depression. My great grandfather did the same thing and raised three kids in down town Detroit on the salary of a milk man.
Yours is an amazing story to hear as like you said it unheard of for men to really take that responsibility with a mother out of the picture.
That green color is actually really nice, looks like the top of a rainforest!
I wouldn't recommend using noodlers ink in vintage pens as some have been known to melt the sacks . Id recommend inks like diamine (excluding reds and purples), waterman , Shaffer or montblanc. Great video very relaxing!
Lewis Normally I'd agree, but the aerometric 51's are safe with pretty much anything you can throw at it since they were designed for use with Parker super chrome ink, which was incredibly corrosive. Only issue I've really heard of is the sacs staining a bit with some inks.
Those inks are well documented as the Baystate series, and I'm sure this gentleman has heard of their misdeeds. Other inks are perfectly fine with vintage pens.
I hope you get that pen working. I isn’t just a pen, it is the world’s best pen and amazingly special to you because it was your great grandmother’s pen.
I always enjoy your fountain pen ASMRs (even those when "remnants" includes an extra "e"!). This was an especially nice one with photos and family/pen history too. Your list of popular names from that era could easily have come from our family tree too! My only additional comment is that many from that era went by dual names such as Velda Ruth etc. You have made me smile! Thank you for sharing.
If anyone's wondering about the pen price. $13 then equates to roughly $295 today
What the fork? Oh my gosh
Loved the stories and pictures! I suspect that you and I are of similar age, as your great grandma seems to be around the same age as mine. Also, when you've looked at 70s catalogs I feel we've had some of the same experiences. Thanks so much for helping me relax in such an interesting way!
I mostly find Asmr videos boring but I can say you can make the most simplest things such as pens interesting! I also love your baseball card videos! Keep up the good work!
Wonderful video and sharing in your memories. You got me into fountain pens with your catfish draw. and I thank you for that. I went slow, but tried several pens. My favorite model is the Parker 75, but contemporary pens, I favor the Asian pen makers such as Pilot and Sailor. Thank you for everything.
Loved this one and listen to it often. Please do a video of the most popular 100 names of the 1880's. If it happened to be during a thunderstorm, that would be grand.
This was at once relaxing, informative, sentimental, and hilarious.
I liked your philosophy - more fastidious people might be appalled at you contaminating the bottle of ink, but it’s ok, it’s just a bottle of ink, no one needs to be worried. The pen may be valuable but what’s the point of valuing something if you never use it
Writing “Edith” - “I just about blew it”. And your stomach grumbling :) thank you for sharing!
LOVE THE PEN VIDEOS!! This one especially.
You're inspiring me to start an all-pen ASMR channel.
By the way, I regularly use my grandfather's Parker 45 Flighter. So I'm really feeling this tribute.
Finally! That cliff hanger killed me X_X
I order a fountain pen because of your videos, so amazing
Yes the reading of the names would be a good video indeed.
I should have played this video when I wrote a second letter to my friend the other day. She wrote to me out of the blue at the start of 2021. I was so pleased as I was able to use my Parker Vector Rollerball Pen to reply to her. 😀
Not the most expensive piece of kit but I just love Parkers, I really do. I have a ballpoint version that I write in my diary every day and I love that too. The sounds in this were very soothing and that Parker 51 is amazing. In fact, I want one now lol.
Those look really cool!
Wonderful video. Is it common for the rubber bladder on a pen from the 40's to still be pliable and airtight after all those years? Seems like that would be a failure point after a long while. Thx!
Gaslamp ASMR ya, it seems amazing that the bladder hasn't dryed up with the ink in it
Gaslamp ASMR The P51 aerometric came supplied with a sac made from plyglass (not sure of the name). Basically an indestructible flexible plastic. These sacs survive 70 years or more. The pen is a true marvel of engineering. Most probably one of the best pens ever made.
IAT1964 That's outstanding, thanks so much for the reply.
I believe those plyglass sacs were certified for 30 years, but they easily last much longer. They just cease being transparant at some point.
Gaslamp ASMR maybe he preserved the pen
This will forever be known as the Remenants video 😉
Your videos got me into pen collecting, thank you!
.So relaxing :) I always enjoy your videos! Thank you!
When you wrote my Grandmother's name (Gertrude), I wondered if you were going to get to my mother's name. Two names later...Myrtle floated onto the page. I too, prefer to actually use those things that have been passed from generation to generation. It makes me feel more in touch with my roots and family.
That thunder in the background...love these videos...
Love the rain in the background
This was nice, thank you.
I love the rain in the background
So good. I love pens, I love rainy days and stormy nights, I love your voice, so this is pretty much my utopia. Kills anxiety faster than xanax.
Your ASMR is always top quality.
I really want to watch this to fall asleep but i need to go to school tomorow...
Hahaha same. Sleeping in the afternoon really messes me up.
For the purpose of ASMR “remenants” plays nicely 😁
That's also really cool that it is passed down to you.
I love the way he snickers after mentioning his wife's spilled inc.
Awesome...
Thank you! Cheers!
You’re handwriting is amazing
I love it. :)
I'm gonna watch this video alot I can already tell
I really liked this video surprisingly
That was awesome. I hope there wasn't, ultimately, anything wrong with that pen. They've just rereleased the 51, and I plan to pick one up. I think it's an amazing looking pen.
Love these videos...you sound like you know all too well about spilling a bottle of fountain pen ink 😳. 🖋
What's in the box? WHAT'S IN THE BOX?!?!?!
19:28 had me dying😂😂
of course 2 of those are my grandmothers names
Nice
Indeed she would.
I clean carpets for a living. I went to a house that had fountain pen ink all over the floor. He paid $300 for me to remove the 8 spots. Let me tell you what, it was a pain in the ass to get out.
perfect time for sleeping xD
New ASMRtist take note:
Natural ASMR is superior to “speed tapping”, “excessive crinkling”, and all that other nonsense.
2:14 is an example of great natural ASMR. Real ASMR isn’t forced.
My great-grandmother was born in 1882 and her name was Bessie! LOL
Nice Zippo.
apparently if you go back far enough.. "remnant: 1300-50; Middle English remna(u)nt, contraction of remenant < Old French" - www.dictionary.com/browse/remnant
Bonds 24K Fleer Brilliance gold!
lol!!
19:32 - When I think about today's popular music
With the original packaging and the pens in prestige condition, how much do you reckon it's all worth? Not including sentimental value ofcourse.
Her name being engraved on the pen and pencil really hurts the value. My guess would be a couple of hundred dollars for the set, but I could be wrong.
RelaxingASMR truly amazing, still. I've never been into pens and writing personally, but I still find this great to watch
Btw is that real rain out side?
Gobit PvP2 That's What I thought. It definitely adds to the video. Too bad I'm already asleep to hear the full review.
I wonder if that's noodelers ink I that pen
How much would the Parker 51 sell for in the 21st century?
3:25 I see 2 different shades here.
1. Always put the cap back on the bottle of ink. 2. You do not talk about fight club. 3. It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again... Ok got it.
I hate to burst your bubble, but I suspect that the residual ink you flushed from the bladder was really black. Black ink is made by combining two or more different color dyes which absorb parts of the light spectrum to create the perception of black. In cleaning out black inks from pens I've purchased off of eBay, I often find they initially look green or red. The more you flush the bladder, the darker the water became. I also noticed a couple of black stains on the paper towel you used to blot the nib after filling the pen.
I'm sure that green ink was available to fountain pen users of the day, but I'm sure black and blue inks were far more common. Green ink seems a little out there for the mid-1940s.
I have a Parker 51 set that was my Grandmother's. It is an all metal Flighter set. I used it for a while but I found it virtually impossible to clean out all the ink from the bladder. You either have to stick with one color ink or accept that whatever ink you use is going to be adulterated by whatever went before. I have fond memories of my Grandmother who lived well into her 90s. I had been out of college for nearly 10 years when she passed. Having this treasured possession gives me a great deal of comfort and is a touchstone for a great many pleasant memories.
My friend, nothing you could possibly say would burst my bubble. All information is greatly appreciated. What you said about the "green" ink makes sense. I was surprised to see green come from that pen. Since then though, I have cleaned the pen and will take another shot at writing with it.I'll use the Parker Quink next time though. Hang on t that Flighter set:)
That pen is not from the 1940s. That on is from the late 50s or later. It is a Mark I aerometric. The greatest pen ever. The Toyota Camry of pens. I have a 46 vac and it cannot be beaten. There is no better pen, and never will be. Many good, but never as good as the 51.
Please do a lighter trick video
plot twist it's a death note
Make lighter trick videos!
Mason Edward, Yes.
When do get to see Minecraft again?
You're the second one to ask that. It's ready, I just need to upload it.
Woohoo!!!!
RelaxingASMR I love your Minecraft videos so much.
When’s the next minecraft video ?
It's ready now. I hope to put it on my Patreon soon and then make public a day or two after that. Much has changed in my world.
Cough face reveal cough
I'm sending you a package of cough drops lol.
RelaxingASMR, I’m adding your comment to my “greatest comments I’ve ever seen” list.
