Product Description
Type Fountain pen
Product Name Model 149
Manufacturer and Year Montblanc, Germany -- early 1970s. This pen has a tricolor 14c nib (correct for late 1960s - early 1970s), a solid ebonite feed, and plastic piston threads. The barrel may have been replaced, as it is not the single unit barrel that was used until the mid-1980s.
Length 5-3/4"
Filling System Piston filler. It's been cleaned and tested and is working well. We guarantee the filling system for a year from the date of purchase.
Color Black barrel with gold plated trim.
Nib FINE 14k Nib. The nib is a springy tri-tone 14C Montblanc nib (yellow gold with a silver masked strip in the middle). Not enough flex for notable line variation. The pen has an ebonite feed.
Condition Excellent + condition. There is light microscratching, with scattered light marks on the cap and barrel, but no individual, significant marks or scratches. The clip ring has some brassing along the edges, and some horizontal lines or scratches, perhaps part of the original machining process. The Germany imprint on the clip band is somewhat shallow, but still easily visible. The clip has light scratching, and some plating wear near the open end. No cracks, major scratches, or dents on the pen. The plastic piston seal and the viewing window are very clear. Ships in Montblanc box.
