Which Unicef Donation pen presentation box do you like best?

You can see them at: http://www.fountainpen.de/donation-unicef-jahn-149.htm

Click on the selections on the left hand side: Helmut Jahn, Andree Putmam, and Tom Sachs.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is the pen a standard 2004 production 149?

What are the material used for the boxes? What's written on the Helmut Jahn box?

I love the Helmut Jahn box. I'm not too sure what's written on it, but what's inside is a standard 149.

Poetry by Goethe is was the description says. I cannot read the actual words.

 

I like the Putman design the best.  But there is something about the Sachs that I can't quite put my finger on...must be in the third picture down.

I hadn't noticed.

Either MB didn't either, or they have a good sense of humor.

Andrèe Putman is my choice

[Titivillus]

Andree Putmam, it just looks so cool.

[ethernautrix]

I like the Andrèe Putman best, too.

 

And now that I've looked closer at the Sachs, I've had a nice little laugh.

[Bryant]

Another for Putman...

[Wael El-Dasher]

I think its that Putman pen carrier/hard pouch that's attractive. It's simple & practical.

 

cheers

Andree. It is probaly the most desirable and best value, if you can consider it that for the price.

The Putman is made of lacquered wood, the Jahn of clear acryllic, and the Sachs of card-board and paper.

 

I feel that the Sachs is the most special, since every inscription and drawing on it, down to the label of the ink bottle, is hand-written or drawn by children. My vote for best looking goes to the Putman.

Thats some serious polishing! I'm amazed, because I thought it was resin.

The Helmut Jahn of course I've got my Dad's 1978 149 inside it while I use the pen that came with it in my 149 pen stand on my desk. No 1642 of 4810, considered a LE, by MB at least....lol!

 

Bought this in 2001/2002 during my first year at Uni..

 

Edit: Thanks, I just looked at the Sachs again...amusing that Mmm..liking a Putman a lot, it does look to be the nicest of the lot...

Andree Putman for me. It is just so Montblanc.

 

Jahn..too much like a sarcophagus...but indeed a respectable effort.

 

Sachs...OK, considering not everybody that uses a MB wears a suit.

If we are talking about which do we like best in the context of the theme, then Sachs for me. It's probably the most unique package to come around in a long time.

 

In the case of pure aesthetics, then the Helmut Jahn.

[BrandonA]

I'd rate the Putman as a distant 3rd - doesn't appeal to me.

 

The other two are very nice, the Jahn is modern looking and the Sachs a bit more classical in appearance. I think the Sachs wins out just slightly for me though.

[KJY]

I vote for the Putman.

You even get a special pencase with it.

[Michael R.]

Andrèe Putman ... of course

Sachs, mainly cause I love his works in general

The Putnam is beautiful as well- the box looks like a holder for Chinese chops
