Commemorating one of the most revered figures in modern history, the Special Edition John F. Kennedy makes symbolic references to the life of J.F. Kennedy in subtle design details. The burgundy-colored precious resin refers to Kennedy's famous Ivy League style and is inspired by his time at Harvard University. His initials "JFK" are engraved on the signature gold-coated clip, and the three cap rings stand for Kennedy's three brothers, also coated in signature gold. In a tribute to the national hopes and dreams embodied in Kennedy's pet project, the Apollo space programme, the handcrafted Au 585 / 14 K gold nib is embossed with the lunar module that landed on the moon in 1969. The Special Edition is crowned by the Montblanc emblem in precious resin. With signature gold and/or signature gold-coating, Montblanc describes the enlightened shade of yellow gold which has become an appreciated tone for the Maison's Writing Instruments.
