I have seen a pic of the 83 edition but the quality was so poor I did not think it was worth posting. I have not seen any pics of the limited 3 editions.

I just got a call from the Atlanta MB Boutique letting me know that my JFK ballpoint pen had arrived at the store. They said my JFK fountain pen would arrive probably early next week. I am looking forward to picking them both up in about a week. :thumbup:

I've just reserved number 1900 out of the 1917 series. Unfortunately, it looks like the pen will need to arrive in Australia then get sent back for its "B" nib. Maybe this time next year.........

My special edition JFK was delivered today. Stuck with the standard M nib although my preference would be a B. Was surprised when I got the call from the boutique as I was expecting the "unlimited" version to be delivered in December/January timeframe. Have not had the time to take a closer look.

 

Came with a nice bound booklet about JFK and in unassuming (149 size) box with the initials "JFK" on the top. No ink or cuff links yet. Will try to take some pics but was waiting for the rest of my Extreme items to come in first.

The 1917 edition is a great looking pen and I wished I had the budget to have ordered it. I ordered the special edition instead. Hopefully the nib exchange won't take that long.

I am happy that you received the pen earlier than expected. How do you like the pen?

Wow! Simply Wow! Is the barrel smooth or textured?

The barrel and cap are smooth, the texture is luckily beneath but very nicely done. The ballpoint is in terms of weight and balance to me the best of the three - I ordered one. The fountain pen is rather light but with a very nice two-color nib - I will probably take it. The roller ball is not for me...

 

It is a very colorful, shiny edition - much different to the recent rather single-colored pens Montblanc did over the years. Reminds me a lot of my 4th of July skeleton pen.

OMG...those step-downs on their way to the section.

In order to appreciate the sweet, you must truly taste the bitter....

Dear Friends, just picked up my JFK Special Edition. It is a F nib. The pen is in a very dark blue colour (almost black) and I hope the photos below can change the impression of some of our friend here who had viewed the one I took during a Montblanc event in April. :wub: :wub:

Sampanel, as ever excellent photos thank you :thumbup:

 

I like the look of everything aside from the section. I need to see the pen in person to form a view on the step down.

I hadn't seen pictures of this version yet, it's a very nice design. Congrats on your purchase and thanks for the wonderful pics as usual :)

I keep thinking about selling some of my pens but all that happens is I keep acquiring more!

Thank you ALL !! I've inked it with permanent blue. I am a EF nib user but this F nib wrote not much different and I will keep it as it is. This would definitely be my another rotation pen !!
