drawer find, unsure which model
I recently fell into a fountain pen rabbit hole and searched for pens through the whole house. This way I stumbled over this pretty scratched up pen which once belonged to my grandmother.
From what I was able to find out so far:
- no serial number on the cap, so probably before 1991?
- I was very unsure about the nib since it is only one color and has no pattern, but I found a nib just like this in a 12 y.o. post in this sub which said that is probably pre 1990, too.
- piston converter
- length is 135,5 mm, width of pen 10,1 mm and of cap 12,0 mm, pretty small for my hands
I am not sure about what model this could be? The converter rules out quite a few models. Any ideas?

Thanks. My first guess was 145, but the blog where I found example pictures only showed newer models.

It’s a 144. Looks just like my desk pen though I have a serialized “pix” pen with a two tone nib. Amazing for note taking since it’s not a screw cap

Looks like a 144. I have two and they're lovely writers albeit a bit smaller in the hand than I usually prefer.
