**Title:**
MONTBLANC Fountain Pen NO.22 Black Barrel 14C EF

**Description:**
This is a Montblanc fountain pen model No. 22.

- 14C585 nib
- EF fine point
- Piston filler mechanism
- Length when capped: approximately 130mm
- Length when posted: approximately 142mm
- Barrel diameter: approximately 11.6mm

This pen is from the 1960s, part of the two-digit series. The No. 22 is smaller than the No. 24 and was more popular in Japan.

It shows signs of use typical for its age, but the piston mechanism works well. The wing nib provides a smooth writing experience.

Please note that two-digit series owners should be aware of potential issues. While not guaranteed, some common problems may occur. It is said that too much development cost went into the nib, affecting the overall quality. I have experienced issues like cracked caps or barrel cracks.

This pen is a classic that teaches us that all things eventually wear out. Please appreciate it with a mature perspective.

Aside from the cap ring and the fitting cap, it is similar to the later model No. 32, which may offer better value for those looking to enjoy the writing experience.
