Hi Alex, It would make it easier to identify the pen if you could change the size of the image so that viewers could enlarge it.
Alex, can't be much older than the 40's since it appears to be a ball point pen.
I agree with Pop, appears to be a ball point, Parker did not make ball point pens until the early 1950's. It's first branded ball point was issued in 1954.
Check ebay, you might find it there, there about 265 listed.
