Montblanc Bohème Chart


josefa

Recommended Posts

This is my small contribution to an object that fascinates me from the first day I saw it.

 

I want to share this chart of all Montblanc Bohème models launched until today.

I included "Noir et noir" and "Rouge et noir" models, which are almost identical to the Bohème but whose names were changed because of copyright issues.

The hardest part of the work was finding the years when each model has been produced, in fact I could not complete the chart in that sense.

I think that companies should put historical information about all their models on their websites, but for some unknown reason they do not.

I see a lot of times questions about Bohème models, if one model in particular did ever exist or not, and so on. I hope this chart can clarify some doubts.

If you find any mistakes, do not hesitate to let me know.

 

Have a good day,

leftyjo

Thank you so much for this, great work.

 

I love the Boheme and have ended up with 11 of them ..... Didn't know about the Purple though, would love one of those!

The purple is a mistery for me. I saw it only a few times on eBay and I'm sure it was an original MB. But I never saw one in real life and there is no information online about that pen.

Outstanding work, not much of a Boheme collector myself (a little rare to find in my area) but it's a fascinating pen, no doubt.

 

Thank you very much for this.

Aha! So .... anyone ever seen/owned a purple Boheme?

WOW!!! Nice work! Boheme's are one of my Favorites. This chart just adds more regrets to my life, because I almost bought a few of these, byt never did.

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
