This has been a hand car wash throughout Streetview but was clearly a small petrol station years ago. No clues to what brand might have been the last sold here - I am guessing it would have been something like a Power/UK if it made it to the current century. Certainly it was an Elf and a Yugo dealership in the 1980's.

Montblanc Heritage Collection - Egyptomania. youtu.be/C_mGLPvLaFc
I’m pleased to provide details about Montblanc’s breathtaking new collection. It is part of our Heritage line and pays tribute to mysterious and rich Egyptian history. EGYPTOMANIA. We are starting to receive the special edition pieces that will be more readily available in store but wanted to share with you some pictures of the High Artistry pieces for your consideration and enjoyment. Please see attached the 2 in a LE1 each, LE5, LE10 & LE72.
In the Special Edition, the hexagonal shape has ‘Montblanc’ engraved with ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. The scarab on the clip is known in Egyptian mythology to promise a better afterlife. The Doue has the scripts from the “Book of Dead” engraved on cap and barrel. The ballpoint pens are very unusual, because they have a press/click mechanism instead of our traditional twist.
It is offered in Resin with bronze and Doue variations. The Fountain pen nib is part of the Heritage Collection and is therefore more soft/flexible than the Meisterstück.
For its Heritage collection of writing instruments, Montblanc resurrects historic pens from its past to celebrate the Maison’s rich history and reimagines those notable editions in a modern avatar that feature the latest designs and technical innovations. For 2020, the luxury brand decided to revisit the so-called Montblanc ‘Egyptian Fountain Pen’ from the 1920s and pay tribute to its beautiful design that was inspired by the ancient Egyptian civilization. Back in that era, the western world was smitten with Egyptian civilization, which is believed to be one of the oldest on the planet. The obsession started during the nineteenth century as a result of Napoleon’s Egyptian Campaign and peaked in the 1920s when King Tutankhamen’s tomb was discovered, which started the new era of “Egyptomania.” Some of the most important areas of culture influenced by Egyptomania were literature, architecture, art, film, politics, and religion. As a result, Montblanc released the Egyptian Fountain Pen with a design inspired by the ancient North African civilization.
The newest to join the Maison’s Heritage collection is the Montblanc Heritage Egyptomania writing instrument that offers a modern take on the century-old classic fountain pen. The design elements of the new writing instrument were created in partnership with an expert in Egyptology. It is decorated with a set of authentic hieroglyphics that translate into the word “Montblanc” with the symbols translating to “white stone mountain.” There are two versions of the new Montblanc Heritage Egyptomania pen, each available as a fountain pen, ballpoint pen, and rollerball pen. The first one is the Heritage Egyptomania Resin, which has an octagonal cap and barrel finished in precious black resin with authentic hieroglyphics, vintage gold-coated fittings , and a 14K gold nib with an embossed scarab. The other version is called Heritage Egyptomania Doué. It comes with an octagonal cap in precious black resin and a barrel with metal embellished with authentic hieroglyphics, vintage palladium-coated fittings, and a 14K gold nib with an embossed scarab. The hieroglyphics are taken from a passage of the “Book of the Dead” of Hunefer, a royal scribe who lived during the 19th century (1300 B.C).
The new Montblanc Heritage Egyptomania collection reawakens the spirit of exploration:
Eternal Egypt, Eternally Fascinating
From Roman emperors to modern-day travellers, ancient Egypt has captivated the imagination for millennia. Seduced by the allure and mystery of the land of the pharaohs, early 20th century explorers set out on expeditions to uncover secret treasures. The discovery of King Tutankhamun’s tomb and the mysteries inside it created one of the biggest cultural events of the 20th century. A new era of Egyptomania has dawned influencing every part of the arts and intellectual life - from the Art Deco movement through films and literature to unique writing instruments.
“Elegant combination of vintage flair and the spirit of exploration.”
Like one of the many breath-taking discoveries unearthed by the great archaeologists on expeditions down the Nile, the Montblanc Heritage Egyptomania collection brings back one of its own iconic treasures from the past. The so-called Montblanc ‘Egyptian Fountain Pen’ from the 1920s, featuring an elegant octagonal shape and Egyptian style engravings, is reimagined for today’s writing culture enthusiasts, combining vintage flair and the spirit of exploration.
Write Like an Egyptian
Created in partnership with an expert Egyptologist, the octagonal precious resin cap of the writing instrument is decorated with authentic hieroglyphs that translate as “white stone mountain”, denoting Montblanc. The barrel of the Doué is inscribed with hieroglyphs from the ancient “Book of the Dead” – one of the most important Egyptology discoveries that contains magic spells intended to assist while journeying through the underworld to access the afterlife. The 14K gold nib on the fountain pen features an embossed scarab – a sacred ancient Egyptian beetle – and a triangular heart-hole that offers a softer writing style, reminiscent of historical Montblanc fountain pens.

Avec Corbeau, Myriam Gourfink sappuie pour la première fois sur la virtuosité de la danse classique, tout en poursuivant sa recherche sur lextrême lenteur. Elle a choisi pour ce solo de travailler avec Gwenaëlle Vauthier, danseuse au Ballet de lOpéra national de Paris.
«La chorégraphie reposera sur la capacité délévation des jambes de linterprète, afin de rendre sensible un espace vertical rarement exploité par les danseurs contemporains. Une danse jouant sur le déploiement continu de ses quatre membres, admettant les 360° du cercle comme autant de possibles à aller ressentir. La plupart du temps la danseuse est en appui sur un pied, lenvironnement dans lequel le reste de son corps est amené à se prolonger est lair. Ainsi jimagine ses extrémités comme les antennes de ses sens qui cherchent à appréhender ce qui les entoure. Le paysage musical de Corbeau est un débordement d'ondes sonores, un univers plein, immense, gonflé à bloc pendant trente minutes, dans lequel la danseuse pourra ciseler ses lignes, sculpter lespace.» Myriam Gourfink
