The
Dumas Edition was published in 1996, and Montblanc made a small mistake with this
edition. The signatures of father and son Dumas were confused,
both of whom were named Alexandre.
Initially, a variant with the signature
of the son (incorrect signature) was produced. When the error was noticed
wurden die Writing Instruments as quickly as possible from
the market. However, a few had already been sold and are
now rare collector's items.
A look at the cap with the signature could therefore be worthwhile.
Exact sales figures are not available, but estimates of 4000 sold can often be found Writing Instrumentsn
with incorrect signature. |
The
Alexandre Dumas Limited edition was issued in 1996.
Dumas' best remembered historical novels are:
- The Three Musketeers
- The Count of Monte-Cristo
The cap is adorned with gold-plated fittings
and due to a research error, Montblanc produced a small number
of pens with the signature of his son, also named Alexandre.
Mont blanc recalled all
unsold pens bearing the incorrect signature however some were
already sold - this makes the fountainpen EXTREMELY rare.
