[QUOTE="monbla256, post: 229115, member: 2244"] In today's "collectable " world you'd probably be looking at $200.00+ for a good usable Post War German (WWII) fountain pen. I'm talking about a solid, does not leak, functioning solid gold nib'd pen that you can fill up from the bottle ( most of the pens from Germany from this time period were piston-fillers) and put to paper and put in your pocket and use daily. The Mont Blanc's will be more but the pens they made during this period were SUPERIOR to what they produce today! They even made "student grade" pens as did most of the German makers that had lovely flexible, smooth Steel nibs :P Pelikan is another maker that made EXCELLENT pens and they go for a bit less than the M-Bs depending on the year of production. Take your time and do some research and you will do ok :P [/QUOTE]
