Montblanc - Writers Edition Alexandre - Fountain pen

Montblanc Writers Edition Alexandre Dumas fountain pen, a limited edition launched in 1996. This specific piece represents a fascinating and iconic "error case" well known in the collecting world. In the initial run, due to a slip in historical research, Montblanc engraved on the cap the signature of the son (Alexandre Dumas fils, also a writer) instead of that of the father, author of The Three Musketeers. The company quickly recalled the unsold batches to replace them with the correct signature, making the version with the "wrong signature" (the one visible in the photo) a highly sought-after piece. Number 00036/20000, one of the early releases. In excellent condition. Look closely—the photos reflect reality. Beautiful.
