We’ve again reached international Fountain Pen Day! Each year it is on the first Friday of November, so, today is Friday, Nov. 7, 2025, and again it is Fountain Pen Day! It can be difficult to remember that we once had “fountain pens” instead of ballpoints and rollerballs. Of course, these are pens that you fill with ink from a container or have a cartridge of ink to insert into the pen. Here is a photo of my collection of Montblanc fountain pens. You’ll find the Traveller at top (the “Traveller” has a cartridge because the pressurized cabin of jet can make a regular fountain pen discharge its ink); the company’s mainstay Meisterstuck le Grand in the middle; the original design of the StarWalker at left; the company’s smallest (the Mozart), designed for a handbag (and this model is no longer produced); and at the bottom is a 1950s era pen that I found on eBay. I staged this shot of my pens at our home here in Naples, Fla., on Oct. 27, 2024. Click here to see all my photos of my Montblanc pens … (Remember: Click on the small image for a bigger version – then click on that one for the full-size photo.)
