Hi guys.
I went to a flea market in Copenhagen today, and I think I got myself a very very
very good bargain!
German Mont Blanc 234½ with 100-series clip, 1935 - as far as I've been able to find out.
I don't think the seller knew what she was selling me, she only wanted 100 DKK - that's about 18 USD.
And since i don't know much about Mont Blanc pens, I just paid happily and thanked the nice lady.
It's only my second MB pen, the first being a 224 acquired last weekend - photos will follow sometime later.
Heh, when I cleansed it tonight, it took a while to get the plunger to seal tight, it was as if it needed a bit of moisture to work properly, so I wouldn't wager a white shirt on the pen being able to hold ink for an extended period of time, but that's something that can be repaired.
After all it is an elderly pen, so I would have been surprised if it had worked perfectly right away.
And still - at that price, it is still a very good bargain.
