Vintage MONT BLANC 244 fountain pen with a 14k KF- Kugel Fine point nib. It is flexy and smooth, as can be seen on the writing sample provided. Kugel nibs were made to mimic the writing style and smoothness of a ballpoint pen. The nib is more flexible than typical kugel nibs and is very smooth. A very interesting pen entirely made from celluloid, the 24X were different than all the other Montblanc pens made in the period. Not only the design, but the way it was made was much different, featuring a metal guide for the piston that is fused to the celluloid barrel and a blind cap the unscrews to reveal the piston filling knob. In most cases, they are a pure pleasure to write with and have a good feel in the had. The pen is in near mint condition, as you can see on the pictures. It is a piston filler pen. The pen itself has been fully serviced, which included disassembly, thorough cleaning and all moving parts lubrication, thus the pistons operates smoothly. You can see the pen fully disassembled in one of the pictures. This was a pen commissioned by AEG, which was a huge German electrics company that was founded in 1883. There is an engraving on the side of the cap. They commissioned many pens from Pelikan and Montblanc, as they were a huge company. The engraving can be completely removed at request, at no additional cost. I have provided a writing sample using Pelikan 4001 black tint, in order to further describe the writing characteristics of the nib. The pen is guaranteed authentic.
