    It may sound odd to some but I prefer the 144, and one of these is definately on my want list!

    They are beautiful pens, especially if you get one with no ambering of the colored celluloid. Not sure of prices on a 142 or 144, but a 146 with no ambering and great color will be north of $1500.

    They write the same as the plain black ones..

    Disclosure... I have a #146 Green Striated, so not trying to dis them, just sayin' ...........

    And my plain black 146 is working well. Thanks Rick for adjusting the nib in DC for me!

    The 4 to the right are all the same size , all 146 pens?

    Sorry, just realized it was already mentioned.....146's what a treasure !
    No Francis, only one 146 and the rest are 144s. I wish they were all 146s. The 144s are lovely though.
    Now, that's a surprise. I thought they were all the same model.

    On close inspection, the 146 is second in line (from the left)?

    Do they have ink windows?

    IMHO, they are the coolest vintage MB ever made. Only if I could afford one.
    I also prefer the 144.

    It's not easy to tell the model with just a glance. The celluloid 144 and 146 lengths are close. Also, the striated celluloid shrinks. I'll have two green striated Meisterstucks at Ohio: a 146 with N.O.S. barrel and a 142 with a flex nib.

    NOS Green Striated barrel!
    Sheesh! That's got to be a rare part to find! Can't imagine Montblanc have many of these left, in their parts department!

    Nice.

    There is still at least one collector keeping those striated celluloid rods from the 60s. I've seen his stock and I had to retrieve my jaws on the floor. :-)
