Montblanc No. 34 Fountain Pen 14K Gold Reverse Oblique OM Nib Serviced Warranty

Description: A bike shop that sells watches and now fountain pens?!? Yes, we are enthusiasts about all three. We have a particular soft spot for Japanese fountain pens, but will be offering pens from several brands and countries. Follow us to see our new offerings. Or, visit us at GCCycles, especially if in Ohio.In 1959, the Montblanc line up was redesigned by Albrecht von Goertz. Goertz famously designed the BMW 507 and had a hand in designing the Toyota 2000GT and Datsun 240z. All three-digit pens (142, 144, 146) except the 149 were discontinued. The new line up was slimmer and fitted with a new “butterfly” of "intarsia" nib. The pens were segmented into three tiers Meisterstuck, Medium Range and Economy. The pens came in two sizes. Pens ending in “2” were smaller in size while pens ending in “4” were larger. The No. 34 is in the Economy tier. Despite being "Economy" this tier is well made and a smooth writer. It was initially offered with a 10 year warranty. The main difference between the No. 32/34 tier the two upper tiers is the use of the "intarsia" nib versus the "butterfly" nib. The intarsia is an inlaid nib. Nibs were mostly 14k gold. There is an early example of the No. 32/34 offered with a "butterfly" nib. The blue ink window doubles as the threads for the cap to screw on to. Theses pen series were offered in four colors: black/burgundy/green/grey. Black is the most common with the other colors being more rare (opinions vary, but the rank from most common to least is burgundy/green/grey). This pen is in (C) Good condition. The pen features a reverse oblique-medium nib for left handed writers. Oblique nibs are less common than other nibs. - Manufacturer/Model: Montblanc No. 34 - Year of Manufacture: 1959-1967 - Color: Black- Material: Resin- Nib: 14k Gold, Oblique Medium- Filling System: Integrated Piston Filler- Condition Rank: (C) Good - Warranty: 90 days on piston service- Country of Manufacture: Germany Condition Rank Guide: -N: Item is in New Old Stock condition (NOS).
