Montegrappa Icons Tribute to Muhammad Ali Limited Edition The Montegrappa ICON series pays tribute to cultural giants. Launching the series is the man who revolutionized boxing on every level: Muhammad Ali. His talent, his skill and the path of his career introduced monumental changes to the sport, and the way it is perceived. Ali shattered stereotypes, creating not just an enviable record in the ring but extending his influence beyond the arena to become a cultural force beyond the confines of sport. The 18 kt gold nib sports the “raised arms” silhouette of the victorious boxer. Finished in specialized white pearlized resin with a black stripe running its length, the barrel bears the colours of his boxing shorts. The end of the barrel completes the look with two circumferential black stripes, as found at the tops of Ali’s socks. The rolling ball pocket clip takes the shape of the stitching on his boxing gloves. The cap profile follows the arc of a speed bag, while the end of the cap is shaped in the cushion form of the World Championship diamond-encrusted ring worn by Ali and his corner team. 1942 is the year of his birth and Montegrappa has issued 1942 fountain pens, cartridge/converter fill, and 1942 rollerballs, with sterling silver trim.

John Lennon Special Edition Montblanc celebrates the 70th Anniversary of one of the most talented artists ever to write music history. With the launch of the John Lennon Edition, Montblanc has captured Lennon’s incredible soul and philosophy. The Liverpool-born musician achieved international recognition as a member of The Beatles performing to adoring fans all over the world. However, it was his solo work after the band dissolved which established him as a cultural icon in his own right. Not only was John Lennon admired for his music contribution, he was also considered a great thinker, an independent mind and a true visionary whose influence shaped the intellectual mood of an era. Reflecting his genius as a musician, the John Lennon Special Edition incorporates several design elements evoking the music of the 1950’s and 1960’s. The gentle grooves chiselled into the black precious resin of the barrel mimic those of an old-style vinyl record, and the clip is shaped like a period guitar head completed with tuning pegs and etched strings on the neck. Hand engraved on the 18kt gold nib is the symbol of peace. At the focal point of the instrument, where the cap meets the barrel, is a silver plaque engraved with John Lennon’s self-portrait – the sketch he scribbled so often in place of a signature – which pays tribute to the memory of the edition’s namesake. Available in Medium and Fine widths. Piston Fill. Fountain Pen Rollerball Ballpoint

Conklin
A
Deco Crest* Limited Edition B C
D
In the latter part of the 19th century, fountain pens became popular but they required filling with an eyedropper. Ultimately, the self-filling fountain pen was made practical thanks, in large part, to Roy Conklin, owner of the Conklin Pen Company of Toledo, Ohio. Roy Conklin did not invent the fountain pen, but he made it more convenient with his invention of the Crescent Filler®. The Crescent Filler, a piece of metal shaped like a crescent moon, extended from the side of the pen. In 1903, Mark Twain called it “a profanity saver because [the Conklin pen] wouldn’t roll off his desk.” But more importantly, when pressed, the internal bar attached to the crescent collapsed an internal sac that, when released, allowed incoming ink to displace the expelled air. The pen was so easy to refill that Mark Twain said “I prefer it to ten other fountain pens, because it carries its filler in its own stomach. . .”Conklin was one of the leading forces in the fountain pen industry for the first few decades of the 20th century, but increased competition and the effects of the Great Depression led to the demise of the company in 1955. The Yafa-owned Conklin Pen Company intends to revive the quality associated with the original Conklin Pen Company of the early 20th Century. Art Deco was a design movement that began in the mid1920’s at the height of Conklin’s fountain pen business. Conklin pens epitomized the designs of this movement. Accordingly, Conklin’s new limited edition is an exemplar of the Art Deco movement. The Conklin Deco Crest is available as a fountain pen and ballpoint. Both are made in Florence, Italy by the hands of the descendents of the artisans that made Florence the artistic center of the High Renaissance. Both pens come with a silver overlay out of which a design is cut showing the resin underneath. Added to this design is the beveled edge and gravure workmanship carved into the metal. Both fountain pen and ballpoint are also available in rose gold vermeil (rose gold over silver). The 18-karat gold nib has the same markings found on the original Conklin nibs with the addition of a two-tone gold and silver design on the top. Available in a Limited Edition of 98 pens in each mode. Of course, the fountain pens are filled by a Crescent Filler.

Symetrik Collection Another Conklin classic returns with the introduction of the Symetrik collection based on the original 1929 design. The Symetrik was the first streamlined fountain pen design released by the Conklin Pen Co. A departure for Conklin during this time period, the Symetrik proved to be an instant success. The Symetrik Collection represents timeless elegance in a streamlined writing instrument. The unique Conklin crescent is etched over the clip of each pen in gold colored flakes as it appeared in the original. The fountain pen comes complete with a gold plated nib, available in M, F and B widths. Cartridge or converter fill.

C Penne D’Italia This special collection dedicated to the Italian culture was created in collaboration with the designer Carlo E. Naldi, a collection fully representing Italian style.

The Marlen Penne D’Italia is certainly a “hot” writing instrument! The fountain pen is enhanced with a 14kt gold nib, available in M, F and B. Cartridge/Converter fill. D

Use cartridges or fill directly from a bottle with the included eyedropper for four times the ink capacity of a full size cartridge! The pen is enhanced with a steel nib, available in M, F and Medium Italic. Only 75 Pens available.

Pelikan Fire The Power of Fire in the Hands of Man
An Achievement of Civilization Limited Edition Fire attracts people like magic. It provides warmth, light and a feeling of security. By learning how to control fire, early man took one of the most important instruments of mankind in hand. Fire gave him the freedom to form his own living conditions. No other achievement has so affected civilization or even made it possible in the first place. Pelikan has dedicated the limited edition “Fire” to the power of fire in the hands of man. The fiery red fountain pen combines both sides of the element: its beauty and its unbridled power give distinction to the shaft, upon which richly lacquered tongues of flame open up into sparks of five, hand-set, precious topazes. Tamed fire is the motif on the cap and the beautifully etched 18 kt gold nib, available in Fine, Medium and Broad widths. Our forefathers already burned wood and used the glowing coals of 500 degrees Celsius and more to warm themselves and to cook food. Pelikan honors the ability of man to make fire useful and has restricted the amount of the limited edition “Fire” to 500 piston-fill writing instruments worldwide. Fire Fountain Pen
