Product Description
Type Vintage mechanical pencil workin well.
Product Name Model #53 (marked on the barrel).
Manufacturer and Year Montblanc, Germany -- probably made in the 1920s or '30s.
Length 5-5/8"
Filling System Takes 1.1mm (or "Thick") leads which it extends via the traditional twist mechanism. The mechanism pushes leads out but does not pull them back in. We'll include a small packet of extra leads.
Color Jade green celluloid barrel with a black cone and top piece, a nickel cone-tip, and the Montblanc star icon on the top piece. The barrel is imprinted "Mont Blanc" with a mountain in between, though the mountain is fairly faded (see photos below).
Condition Excellent condition, no cracks or chips, dings or dents, or personalization. There are a few small marks and very light scratches on the body, and some minor discoloration on the barrel and hard rubber top piece. As mentioned above, the imprint is a little worn, but still readable. The pencil is working well.
