Montblanc #254 "Display" FP

[DocNib]

Good Morning MB Lovers!

 

I'm in need of some German translation on a #254 "Display" FP that I picked up recently. This is one of those pens that has the cap pinned to the barrel in the posted position and has a Brass nib with no tines/no split...simply for use in some kind of display.

 

Unfortunately, some idiot tried to pull the cap off & in the process crackled it and part of the barrel & glued it back together. They did a good job gluing it, but it is visible and just knowing it's there is kind of frustrating!

 

Now, my question: On the barrel in German is the word "UNVERKAUFLICH"...anybody know what that word translates to in English? Any help would be appreciated!

 

Thanks,

DOC

If it was meant for the english speaking market it would have been

 

NOT FOR SALE

 

(sorry for the letter size, couldn't resist, since it probably was sold to you )

Thanks Hans!

 

I thought maybe it said "FOR DISPLAY ONLY" or "DEMONSTRATOR" but "NOT FOR SALE" makes sense...now to come up with a price for this NOT FOR SALE pen that WILL BE FOR SALE (eventually)!
