In 1948 Montblanc restyled its  models and introduced the 14X line of pens.

Initially only sizes 142, 144 and 146 in black celluloid were produced. The big 149 was introduced in 1952.

Later on Montblanc introduced a beautiful striped celluloid in two different tones of green and in gray which was used for all the sizes with the exception of 149 which was manufactured in black only..

Early feeders on these models were flat with two back channels. Later feeders have a bumped back and a different design.

This Montblanc 146 has a bumped  feeder and it is in excellent condition. the nib is a rare OBB which is very smooth, generous and flexible.

Condition is excellent with only very very limited signs of time and use.

It is a very pleasant and highly performing writer.
