Today I have another beautiful pen from Azuniga's collection for you - a No. 25 Coral Red Lever filler from the 1920s. https://www.vintagemontblancpens.com...ever-coral-red. This is a superb example with a vibrant red colour!
Also, I have a No. 0 black hard rubber (BHR) lever filler that I recently purchased https://www.vintagemontblancpens.com...ver-filler-bhr.
Enjoy!
That coral pen is really striking (maybe I am biased because I finally got my first red Duofold this week...)
I can't believe how tiny the other pen looks. Or how big the 149 is.
Anyway I don't think I will ever tire of seeing these older Montblanc pens. Thanks again!
If you love safeties + the first Meisterstück series, then this mid week post is going to be just the mood booster you need :) Check out the rare beauty here https://www.vintagemontblancpens.com/no-45-bhr-safety
Enjoy!

You might have noticed that I just love these Spanish made Montblancs from the 1950s. Here is a super rare one - the 246 in Green Chevron https://www.vintagemontblancpens.com...-green-chevron
Enjoy!
This is a grail series for me! My favourite filler system + pen design = the 10x series. Check these classic pens out https://www.vintagemontblancpens.com/no-104-106-safety
An absolute quality addition to those of use that like MB vintage and modern pens!
My Compliments!

That is a treat. I went in thinking "I like lapis pens but how special could it— holy toledo that is incredible!" [emoji16] I really enjoy these articles a lot. Thanks so much!
I am very pleased to present to you an interview with Jesús Martínez Guillén - author of "Montblanc Pens Made in Spain" as he tells us about his favourite pens, and explains why the vintage Spanish designs are so distinct --> https://www.vintagemontblancpens.com...llen-interview
Guillén's comment about collecting applies to collecting anything, not just Spanish Montblanc pens:
Do not get obsessed with acquiring all of them right away. Such thing usually means paying a premium and besides, completing the whole collection normally delivers frustration instead of satisfaction because the enthusiasm suddendly faints. Stay away from stress. The pleasure is the way itself, not the achievement of the target.
Thank you, Sia!
Here's a No. 25 push-knob filler but in a lovely colour that you don't see often --> https://www.vintagemontblancpens.com...een-gold-brown
Enjoy!
I am sure you will recognize this pen on your Grail list. Its not got any fancy colours, its not the largest pen, but it is the epitome of classy! Enjoy the L 129 https://www.vintagemontblancpens.com/l129
Also, with this review we add yet another generous contributor to our website - specialk0449 from FPN. It is truly encouraging to see the vintage MB community come forward and support the website towards building a comprehensive catalogue of these beautiful vintage pens that bring joy to all our hearts :)
I am very pleased to share with you a review of my most recent purchase - a 126 PL. This has been a Grail pen for me since the day I started focusing on vintage MBs, and so I am very happy to have it in my modest collection.
