This fountain pen is also known as the "Karen Blixen model," as Baroness Karen von Blixen-Finecke—best known as a Danish poet, author, and storyteller—used a Montblanc fountain pen identical to this one, in the exact same size and color. It was also produced in a burgundy version. This model also exists in a smaller version (No. 252) and a larger version (No. 256).
