Description from the seller
A0000005733
VINTAGE MONTBLANC 252 FOUNTAIN PEN (GERMANY, CIRCA 1950s): We are pleased to present for auction an excellent example of Montblanc’s golden age in the 1950s: the Model 252. This series is highly prized by collectors for its cleaner, more modern lines compared with its contemporaries.
The pen is made in a deep, glossy black and is easily distinguished from other families by two unmistakable features of this model: its single wide cap band and its elegant, straight, flat clip. The iconic white snow-capped peak star crowns the cap.
At the heart of this writing instrument is its superb original 14-karat solid gold nib (stamped 14C), characteristic of the decade and ensuring a classic, high-quality writing experience. It retains its original piston-filling system.
Condition (Expert Assessment)
This fountain pen has more than 60 years of history and shows an honest patina of use:
Barrel and Cap: Retain an excellent shine and have no cracks.
Metal Trim: The gold plating on the cap band and clip shows significant wear (brassing), very common on models from this period. The base metal is visible, giving the pen unmistakable vintage character.
Mechanism and Nib: The 14C nib is in excellent cosmetic condition. The piston mechanism turns. (Expert’s note: As this is an older piston-filling system, the internal seal may require servicing or lubrication to ensure a perfect vacuum for everyday use. The pen will be shipped clean and without its original case.)
Shipping
The item will be carefully protected and securely packaged, and shipped insured with international tracking.
An extraordinary opportunity for collectors to add a 1950s celluloid Montblanc to their collection, featuring one of the finest nibs the brand has ever made! Best of luck to all bidders, and may we have an excellent auction!
