2010 welcomes the return of The Open Championship to The Old Course at St Andrews Links, marking its 150th anniversary. With such a momentous year, interest in the world’s most famous golf venue has never been higher. Golf fans around the world will be able to own a very special, officially licensed product, commemorating this milestone year.
A new range of writing instruments, produced under the Montegrappa brand, will represent the quality, history and beauty associated with St Andrews Links. Izzy Cameron, St Andrews Links’ Brand Development Manager commented: “We are delighted to be working with a company with the history and heritage of Montegrappa. This license extends our world famous brand into an area where the owners of the pens can appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of Montegrappa’s products, just as those who play our courses appreciate the legacy of 600 years of golfing history.”
Gary Jacobson of CPLG Sport, said, “The exceptional brand values associated with St Andrews Links align perfectly with those of Montegrappa. We feel the writing instrument range will reflect the beauty and history of the courses themselves.”
Adds Giuseppe Aquila of Montegrappa “We are proud to partner with St Andrews Links, The Home of Golf. St Andrews Links and Montegrappa are two historic institutions that are at the forefront of the respective fields – St Andrews Links preserves and promotes the noble game, for us it’s the beauty of handwriting.”
Fittingly utilising green celluloid and detailed with a golf ball cabochon on the cap with a reproduction of an original illustration of St Andrews Links on the barrel, the Montegrappa pens will signify six centuries of golf played on the Links at St Andrews since approximately 1400 AD. By the 19th century, golf had woven its way into the fabric of the local community, becoming a way of life for local citizens, as players, caddies or ball and club makers. Golf remains the cultural and economic life-blood of St Andrews to this day.
To represent the heritage of St Andrews Links, Montegrappa will be creating its pens in quantities that reflect important numbers in the legendary golf venue’s history:
150 marks the 150th anniversary of The Open Championship, which will be played at St Andrews Links in 2010;
18 represents the holes in a standard round of golf;
1400 (700+700) Golf has been played on the Links at St Andrews since approximately 1400 AD.
Montegrappa took inspiration from these significant figures and the St Andrews Links 2010 Limited Edition will consist of two series of pens, one engraved in low relief and the other hand painted, broken-down as follows:150 Hand-Painted Fountain Pens with sterling silver trim150 Hand-Painted Roller Balls with sterling silver trim18 Hand-Painted Fountain Pens with solid 18K trim18 Hand-Painted Roller Balls with solid 18K trim700 Sterling Silver Fountain Pens with barrels engraved in low-relief700 Sterling Silver Roller Balls with barrels engraved in low-relief18 Solid 18K Gold Fountain Pens with barrels engraved in low-relief18 Solid 18K Gold Roller Balls with barrels engraved in low-reliefTotal number: 1772 pieces
