| Description | This is the original version of today´s Masterpiece pen, as it was made in the 50ies. Let me list all the important features, identifying this pen: The pen is made completely out of celluloid - on the lathe. Even the white star is made from celluloid. The small caprings are made from solid silver. This was made only for the biggest version of the series and only in the 50ies. The pens 142 to 146 were made with rolled gold rings instead. The ebonite feeder of this pen is the later round version, thus the pen is made from 1956: The pistonfilling mechanism of this original is the full metal teleskopic piston, which was invented and patented by Montblanc in the mid thirties. The model number is imprinted in the turning knob, which was only made till the end of the fifties. Later pens were imprinted on the rolled gold capring. This pen is still in very good condition, a perfect cap without cracks, tight cap bands and no brassing. Barrel as well is in near perfect condition, no ambering. Very interesting to see the pen featuring a precious L139 nib, with a medium tip with a good flex. Fully working, serviced. |
