Received another one today. This is a Spanish made 42 in black. I have searched the web but have not seen another. While I do have the striated version and these do show up from time to time the black ones seem rarer. If anyone has contrary evidence please let me know. So I took it out of the package and it had been nicely cleaned so I inked it up. Wow, while the nib is very springy it is not actually flexible. However, it is by far the smoothest writing MB nib I have ever used. The pen is obviously in well used condition but this one should make it into my regular rotation. Here are a few photos.
