Product Name Montblanc Writers Edition Agatha Christie. See the Montblanc page on this pen model. #8061/30000 (7000 were sold in sets).
Manufacturer and Year Montblanc, Germany -- 1993.
Length 5-1/2".
Filling System Piston filler. It has been tested and is working well.
Color The body and cap are made of a black resin and the trim is solid sterling silver. The cap has a domed piece in its top. The clip is in the shape of a snake (a symbol of wisdom), with the tail end curled around the top of the cap; the snake has ruby eyes. As with all of the pens in this series, Agatha Christie's signature is etched on the pen, and is located at the top of the cap.
Nib Medium 18k two-toned nib. It continues the snake theme with a head etched on the nib and masked in rhodium. It's very smooth and writes like a medium-fine. We generally find Montblanc nibs to run narrow. The nib is slightly springy.
Condition Near mint condition, in box with paperwork. There is very slight wear, but it's really minimal and the pen pretty much looks new. It ships in its original book-shaped box with sleeve and paperwork.
