The pens reverted back to a three-digit numbering system. The pens were offered in Matt Gold, Matt Silver, Matt Black, Polished Black, Grey, Red (Burgundy), Green and Stainless Steel. The pens were offered in just one size. Pens produced from 1968 through 1973 used the initial feed design which utilized a hole for airflow. In 1974, the feed was redesign and the hole was deleted. This feed remained in production through the end of the line in 1979. This particular pen is a \"Transitional Year\" model. It features the standard 221 body and cap, but a Butterly style nib unit. Early classic models were equipped with this original design for the first year before Montblanc moved to the different style nib.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe No. 221 is in the Medium Range tier.
