Thanks very much for looking at our listing for this Montblanc Great Characters John F. Kennedy Blue Special Edition Fountain Pen, which comes with its large Montblanc presentation box (including outers) and unstamped booklet. The pen has never been used and is presented in essentially as new condition – there is a tiny mark on the metal collar by the grip section and this is shown in the photos. The M sticker, confirming a medium nib, can still be found on the piston cone.
The Great Characters series has seen many famous names honoured by Montblanc and the JFK is certainly one of the most popular.
The blue colour scheme is reflective of his time in the U.S. Navy and of his Ivy League style. The three cap rings are a nod to his three brothers and his initials can be found engraved on the clip.
The pen is fitted with an 18k medium nib, which is engraved with the lunar module that landed on the moon in 1969. Being a piston filler, your choice here is bottled ink.
The important details are as follows…
– Medium Nib
– Essentially As New Condition
With every pen that we sell we provide a card that includes the manufacturer, model, serial / limitation number and date it was purchased from us. We do this because our customers like to have documentation showing that it’s been purchased from a trusted seller. As the Financial Times said recently in their How To Spend It publication – “izods is an e-cache of ultra fine fountain pens”.
