Product Description
Type Vintage cartridge/converter fountain pen.
Product Name Model 221 or similar. Not marked on the pen but we are fairly certain this is close to the correct model.
Manufacturer and Year Montblanc, Germany -- from the 1970's
Length 5-3/8"
Filling System Takes Montblanc or international style ink cartridges. A Montblanc converter is installed.
Color Burgundy with gold trim. There's a white Montblanc icon on the top of the cap and the end of the barrel.
Nib FINE 14k nib. Nib is marked 585 - this model came with both gold and gold-plated nibs, so this is one of the former.
Condition Very nice condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a shiny, nice-sized pen, in a pretty color combination. There are some tool marks on the nib and feed, but the point itself is undamaged and very smooth to write with. The cap and barrel have light scratching with specific small areas of moderate scratching (mid-barrel, on either side of clip). The cap band trim looks good. The clip looks good. The top tassie has a bit of plating wear along the bottom edge. The star emblems are perfect. The imprints are clear.
