What model is this pen?

[jenny wren]

I put this pen up on ebay (item 190101291505) not really knowing anything about it. My horrified son suggested asking for help identifying it and found this forum for me. The pen has "Montblanc Germany" on the central gold ring and also on the filler piston. It has "585" on the nib. I can't see any other identification marks. Help!

greetings and salutations

welcome to fpn

very nice pen you have there.

i'm not an expert on mont blancs...esp. with historical/vintage models...yet...

but taking a stab, i'm thinking its possibly a 320 circa mid 1950s(?)

i may be completely off on the date...

check out item 220097993558 on the bay.

looks like your pen, but you can make a much better comparison than i.

this other one is circa 1980s.

hope this helps...and i hope someone more knowledgeable will be able to ID the pen for sure.

It looks like this is a Mont Blanc Classic fp. This is problaby not a vintage pen, but one from the 80's. for more information you can look here.

sam, mr T,

 

Thanks! Those pens do look like mine. I am puzzled, though, how a 1980's pen might have gotten into the stash I uncovered in my cleanup frenzy...
