| Filler Type | Piston-filler |
| Date of Manufacturer | 1950-52 |
| Overall Condition | Example of an interesting vintage model in Very Good condition. |
| Nib | Correct and perfect original 14C nib in Oblique Broad (OB) size (matches filler knob imprint). All imprints are crisp and perfect. Feed is the early flat type.
This nib is nicely semi-flexible, with great character due to its oblique cut. |
| Cap and Body | Good condition with no cracks, imprints, or significant scratches. Excellent cap and filler knob imprints, with most of original color present. There is light surface wear on cap and body. Small amount of brassing on the cap band and slightly more on the edges of the clip.
This is an early production pen with the brown ink window, cap band above the lip and the earlier outline of the Montblanc snowpeak on the derby instead of the inlaid snowpeak. Brown ink window has good clarity. |
| Additional details |
This was the larger model in Montblanc's third price-level product line of the mid- to late-1950s. This would make a terrific daily user due to its balance and wonderful nib. Pen holds water but needs a cork replacement to become completely reliable. |
| Length | 13 cm closed |
