Description

Montegrappa proudly honored one of the greatest heroes of the 20th century by creating a limited edition pen commemorating the 50th anniversary of Yuri Gagarin's historic spaceflight. This marks a groundbreaking and most exciting period in human history, highlighting our ongoing desire for exploration.

Yuri Gagarin was born on March 9, 1934, in Klushino, Russia. Gagarin was a Soviet Air Force pilot who, in 1960, after completing the selection process, was chosen from 19 other pilots for the Soviet space program. He became the first human to travel into space.

The original idea was for the pen to represent the first part of the Cosmopolitan collection; however, the significance of the 50th anniversary of Yuri Gagarin's flight prompted the Italian manufacturer to create a special limited edition. The Montegrappa Yuri Gagarin pen joins other prestigious awards and recognitions, including a series of commemorative ruble coins issued by the USSR for the anniversaries of 20, 30, and 40 years, and the title of Hero of the Soviet Union following the renaming of Gzhatsk to Gagarin in 1968.

Since 1912, Montegrappa has been producing high-quality writing instruments in its historic building in Bassano del Grappa, North East Italy. Master craftsmen engraved the body with a bas-relief image of Yuri Gagarin, bordering an interplanetary motif, on the cap with the USSR emblem. The clip, equipped with a rotating ball, facilitates easy application and removal from pockets. It is surrounded by a reproduction of the Moscow monument of Yuri Gagarin. The pen features a piston filling system, providing ink flow to a bi-color 18K gold nib with an ebonite feed. Both the ballpoint and fountain pen come in stylish wooden presentation boxes with ink. The top cover of the box is decorated with a metal plaque engraved with Yuri Gagarin's image and an anniversary note in Cyrillic.

To mark the 50 years since Yuri Gagarin's historic spaceflight in 1961, Montegrappa released a limited edition collection consisting of: 1961 silver fountain pens, 1961 silver ballpoint pens, 50 18K gold fountain pens, and 50 18K gold ballpoint pens.
An exceptional pen honoring a legendary space icon makes a perfect gift for any occasion.
