Description

Thanks very much for looking at our listing for this delightful Montblanc Great Characters Alfred Hitchcock 3000 Limited Edition Fountain Pen, which comes with its large Montblanc presentation box (including outers), film reel case and booklet. The pen remains sealed in its factory plastic pouch, so is presented in new condition – there is a little bit of tarnishing to the silver elements (although the pouch is supposed to stop this, even a small air hole can cause it). We can send the pen sealed or alternatively we can open the plastic pouch and polish the pen prior to dispatch. Only 3000 examples were produced and this is number 0860.

The Great Characters series has seen many famous names honoured by Montblanc and the Alfred Hitchcock is arguably the most interesting, in terms of design.

The cap and barrel are finished with a twisting effect, which alludes to the dizzying effect of the staircase in the film “Vertigo”. The stainless steel clip is knife-shaped as a nod to “Psycho” and one the cone can be found 53 hatch marks, marking the 53 films that Hitchcock dirtected. The notes on the cap and barrel refer to the original ‘Psycho’ film reel. The trim is sterling silver.

The pen is fitted with an 18k medium nib and it’s a piston filler, so your choice here is bottled ink.

The important details are as follows…

– Medium Nib

– New Condition

– Limitation Number: 0860 / 3000

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”.
