Vintage Restored Danish 1940s MONTBLANC 224 Jet Black BF Fountain Pen
Item History & Price
Offered for your consideration this evening is a beautiful vintage Montblanc pen from the 1940sM O N T B L A N C No. 224 Jet BlackGold Filled trimc. 1948HistoryAnother very uncommon Danish Montblanc from my collection. This is the 224 model, which is a push-button filler rather than a piston filler (designated as model no. 244). These pens were only made in Denmark for Danish market and only for a very short time (from 1948 until c. 1950). It’s an early model, wit...h the Montblanc trademark MontM-Blanclogo to the cap.The cap has a twin bands at the cap lip like all 24x series pens and a beautiful Art deco Skyscraper-type stepped clip. The cap has is slightly streamlined, with a button cap top inlaid a white Montblanc snowflake logo. Button filling mechanism (this model was also available in the piston filler version, model no. 24x)This is the second largest pen in the 22x line-up (consisting of models 222, 224, 226).Item condition:Overall, the pen’s in very good condition: just some minor, high-point wear to the gold filled clip resulting from normal use (please see photos) otherwise the pen looks very good indeed: the inlaid Montblanc snowflake logo looks great; nice high gloss surface and great crisp and fully readable imprints – on both the cap and the barrel. All in all, a well-kept and very presentable pen.Imprints on the cap:Mont^^-BlancThe filling system:Patented Montblanc button filler.To fill, simply unscrew the Blind Cap and place the nib in ink so that the lower part of the section is also immersed. Press the button 2-3 times. Remove the nib from ink bottle. Wipe the pen point and section with paper towel. Replace the blind cap by screwing it back on to the barrel.All done. Takes about 10 seconds and holds a nice, generous amount of ink.DimensionsLarger, mid-sized modelCapped: c. 12.6 cmUncapped: c. 11.4 cmPosted: c. 14.6 cm Please view all the Photographs as they form large part of the description.
