MONTBLANC WRITERS EDITION PEN 1992 "ERNEST HEMINGWAY":
We present at auction the foundational piece of modern Montblanc collecting. Launched in 1992, the "Ernest Hemingway" edition had the honor of being the first of the now legendary "Writers Edition" collection. Finding units in this magnificent state of preservation has become a real challenge for enthusiasts worldwide.

The design of this fountain pen is a direct tribute to the mythical Montblanc 139 fountain pen from the 1930s. It has bold and balanced dimensions (13.3 cm in length and 1.3 cm maximum diameter). The body is turned in a brilliant coral-red precious resin, which contrasts dramatically with the cap and the lower cone in dark resin.

The metallic details, gold-plated, include a gorgeous vintage-style clip. On the cap, as the sole personal adornment, is engraved the signature of the Nobel Prize in Literature.

Condition (Expert Review)
Payers are asked to carefully observe the photo gallery. The pen is in magnificent aesthetic and working condition, very well cared for for having more than 30 years of age:

Resin and Gold Plating: The coral-red body and the cap maintain a deep and uniform shine. There are no cracks, dents, or deep scratches; only minuscule micro-scratches ("hairs") superficial of occasional rubbing. The rings and the clip retain their entire gold plating with no apparent wear.

Mechanics: The continuous twist mechanism works with total smoothness to extend and retract the nib. (Note: The writing instrument is delivered as-is, without the original book-shaped edition boxes. It is possible that the inner ink cartridge may require replacement in the future).

Shipping
The item will be carefully protected and securely packaged, with highly insured shipping and an international tracking number.

A huge opportunity to acquire the "Holy Grail" that inaugurated Montblanc's Writers Editions! Best of luck to all bidders!
