Edgar Allan Poe gained world fame for his tales of horror and the supernatural. In works such as “The Fall of the House of Usher” and “The Murders in the Rue Morgue”, Poe managed to create a unique blend of intellect, fantasy, and morbidity. In “The Raven”, the grand master of the horror story created a poem that is still learned by almost every schoolchild in the English-speaking world. Although Edgar Allan Poe came under criticism throughout his life in the bourgeois American society of the 19th century, today he is acclaimed as a great and timeless author and as a pioneer of modern literature.

This Montblanc Edgar Allan Poe Fountain Pen is a very elegant writing instrument crafted in Germany. I would consider this Montblanc Limited Edition Fountain Pen in Near Mint to Mint Condition. The pen had been inked but displays no wear. A marvelous addition to your Montblanc Writer's Series arsenal collection.
