That's OK, the Montblanc makes up for it. Nice score! Looks like it was well loved.

Have you tried filling it? The last one of those I used had a really soft, springy nib. And smooth!

yea when i stopped in the bittner pen shop in carmel they filled it for me when they were showing me how it worked. i thought the end cap came off. i didnt realize it worked like a push button by twisting the end cap. they showed me he pelican demonstrator which was cool cuz i got to see how it worked.

the nib is kinda springy like u mentioned. i really like the way it writes. i just need to work on y cursive. i havent written in cursive since high school.

Nice find! I've been going to the wrong kind of flea market!

This is, primarily, a shaving forum. We understand.

Lookin' good!
The flex or semi flex nibs on the early MB pens are nice.
I have a 320 that has a semi flex nib.
Great stuff to write with.

Nice find! This is probably the only place where you wont get any "Huh?" posts after adding shaving brush pics to a thread about a pen! Thanks for sharing!

Nice pen. I'm definitely not going to the right flea markets. All I usually see are second tier pens with warped bodies, bent nibs, and 39.99 price tags!
