The first MB FP that I ever purchased was a beautiful 144 in black resin with gold furniture. I lost that pen for about 6 months and was heartsick about it. At that time I could not afford to replace it and that pen had traveled into China and Malaysia with me, faithfully chronicling that adventure. One of my first trips abroad.

One day I reached under the seat of our van found it!! It had nestled itself next to the seat mount on the floor where it was almost impossible to see or get to. I still have that pen and love it.

Some pens just have a history that are meaningful to the owner and are irreplaceable. I count myself fortunate to still have my first MB FP and hope someday to pass it down to one of my children along with its history and the journals it has written.
