Montblanc 20 Celluloid Fountain Pen 1930. 14C Full Flex F Nib. Great practical size pen. Perfect for people who do not like the HUGE 149 or 146 etc sized pens. This pen is a pleasure to hold. A JOY to write with. One of Montblanc’s first EVER Celluloid Models. It is in fabulous original condition with Zero cracks or splits etc. Rare early Pushknob filler (same as 122, 124, 126, 128 etc pens). Pushknob is a Superior design to the push button filler models like 25 etc. This pen is a 1st issue Meisterstuck/Masterpiece 4810 premium line model. These were the 1st pens to get the 4810 imprint nib. These were also the first pens Montblanc made with Pushknob or button filler (1920’s Parker Duofold Style). Pushknob is a UNIQUE design to Montblanc. The Blind Cap Tail End is the button. It does not screw off. It has special internal thread that allows it to unscrew then be fully pressed. These pens are Series I (20, 30, 40). The simpler cheaper to produce models are Series II (25, 35, 45) which are the exact same as Parker Duofold as their Blind Caps unscrew off to reveal a metal button. This pen is made of Jet Black High Gloss Celluloid. Still has a wonderful Gloss and Sheen of a new pen. Zero Cracks, Splits or Repairs etc. This pens fantastic Cap side imprints are Deep and Easy to Read as when NEW. Ultra Rare to find such perfect imprints. The Simplo Montblanc etc Barrel Imprints are also good for one of these examples with only light wear. This pen has not been polished or even handled much in its life. Always looked after and never abused. The Tail End Pushknob, Front Section (part you hold when writing) are all BHR (Black Hard Rubber) and the Caps Top White Star is Casein with BHR surround. The Clip and Ring Bands are Yellow Gold Plated and also superb with only the lightest of patina on the high points as you would expect of this age. Very rare to find such clean Gold Trim. Overall once in the hand to the naked eye this pen looks Fabulous still. You would struggle to ever find a cleaner example. The beautiful 14C F/M 4810 1st Issue Nib is a Joy to use. Writes with a Fine to Medium line that has Fine line side stroke at normal pressure. This nib also has some flexibility that allows for even more linewidth variation on the Downstroke when varying levels of pressure is applied. It can flex from Fine to Double Broad. The flex is NOT soft, loose or twitchy. ONLY flexes upon user command never by itself. A robust thick solid gold nib that is built to last. To fill with ink could not be any easier. Simply unscrew the Blind Cap (see photo 7) now place ALL of the nib into bottled ink and press the Blind Cap fully down once then release. Wait 5 seconds to fill. Now remove Nib from ink. Screw Blind Cap back down. Takes 10 seconds and is Childs Play Simple. Ultra Reliable filling system. Also future friendly as very easy to service compared to Piston pens etc. This pen has just been fitted with a New Ink Sac so should be good for at least 30 years before needing service. Come s ready to write just add your favourite colour bottled ink… Perfect as a gift or treat yourself to a wonderful collectible fountain pen that can be used and enjoyed daily..
