Montblanc Meisterstuck 142 Ob

[topthree]

This pen belongs to my wife of 58 years.Her mother gave it to her in her.Senior Year in school in Germany.The year given to her was 1958.I do not have pictures,but I would judge it to be in very good condition.It has a,Montblanc Nib,with dried ink on it,has the Montblonc logo on it.Can you give me approximate MFG Year?

 

Thank you very much, Top three

The Montblanc 142 started production in 1951, so your pen is from 1951 to 1958, I would say. A picture of the feed would help narrow the production date.

I posted on the,14th of June,about a Montblanc Meisterstuck,142 OB.My question now is.It does not have a SN,but on the Clip,reverse,there are double XX on it.Can anyone reply to this?

Please show us your pen.

The XX was stamped on the back of the MB meisterstuck clips in the 50's. It is correct. And dates your pen to the period I refer at my previous post. Pictures are helpful if you want more information.

As mentioned by others a picture will help a lot. Serial Numbers were not introduced until 1991 ish

Just checked my 142 and it has the XX too, thanks for the info piscov.

The 142s were good pens (probably underrated), and even nicer with an OB nib.
