With enormous vision and an unbridled passion for motor sport, Enzo Ferrari led his company to unparalleled prestige and created a legend that lives on. Montblanc has dedicated the Montblanc Great Characters Enzo Ferrari Special Edition to the man and his passion for racing. Drawing inspiration from both the crest of Enzo Ferrari´s hometown Modena as well as the emblematic colour of the Scuderia´s logo, this edition honours Ferrari´s second soul – the colour yellow. The dates of Enzo Ferrari’s birth and his first racing victory are engraved on the cone, while his signature and the name of his father’s workshop, ‘Officina Meccanica Alfredo Ferrari’, in reference to Enzo Ferrari’s birthplace, are engraved on the cap top. It is crowned by the Montblanc emblem made of precious resin in blue – as a further tribute to the crest of Modena – and surrounded by intricate metalwork reminiscent of a vintage car grill. Enzo Ferrari’s first victory, at the Circuito del Savio, was also the occasion marking the beginning of the now famous Ferrari logo. Among the many spectators who admired Enzo Ferrari’s bold driving that day was the family of the ace pilot Francesco Baracca, who had served during World War I in the same unit as Enzo’s brother Dino. Francesco Baracca’s mother, Countess Paolina Biancoli, suggested that Enzo Ferrari should use the emblem of a prancing, unbridled horse from her son’s plane on his racing cars for good luck. The horse’s association with a national hero’s courage and will to dominate made it an ideal symbol for Enzo. Nine years later, the Cavallino Rampante was first used on a yellow background to adorn a car. It was 1932 at Spa 24 Hours, and the Scuderia Ferrari team took 1st and 2nd place with two cars bearing the Prancing Horse. The Cavallino Rampante is engraved on the cap of the Montblanc Great Characters Enzo Ferrari Special Edition together with the words of the countess: ‘Le porterà fortuna’ (‘It will bring you luck’).

The Limited Edition 1975 also appears in this contrasting guise. The band’s fourth studio album, however, surpassed everything that had gone before and is considered the most elaborately produced album of the 20th century. The four artists who performed on it have gone down in history: Freddy Mercury, the charismatic front man with a vocal range spanning several octaves and featuring a rich vibrato; Brian May, the virtuoso guitarist and his unmistakable electric guitar sound; John Deacon, the highly creative bass player; and Roger Taylor, the rhythmic heart of the band. As a nod to these four exceptional musicians, their stylised portraits are immortalised on the black cap of the writing instrument, based on the artwork of the iconic Queen II and Hot Space covers. The album A Night at the Opera – and, in particular, its centrepiece Bohemian Rhapsody – exemplifies Freddie Mercury’s dream of creating a record of epic proportions. The single’s six-minute, extravagant arrangement combines piano ballads, opera and rock, interspersed with layer upon layer of operatic, cascading vocals and quirky references to such characters as Galileo or Scaramouche, a figure from the Commedia dell’Arte. Mercury himself, known for his flamboyant stage costumes, would often slip into the guise of another Commedia dell’Arte figure, the Harlequin. His famous tight-fitting unitard with its black-and-white diamond pattern underlined his unconventional stage persona and inspired the rhomboidal design of the barrel. The edition also honours Brian May and his amazing guitar playing, which was so pivotal to the sound of the album, by giving the platinum-coated cone its distinctive look. This is reminiscent of the volume and tone control knobs on May’s famous electric guitar. The cone ring is embossed with the name of the album: A Night at the Opera. The year of its release, 1975, inspired the decision to limit the edition to 1975 fountain pens and 1975 rollerballs. The crown worn by Mercury during the closing rendition of God Save The Queen was the inspiration behind the silhouette of the cap top of the Limited Edition and is, at the same time, a metaphor for the majestic character of the band and its musical legacy. The platinum-coated clip is designed to resemble a microphone stand, in reference to one of the hallmarks of Freddie Mercury’s live performances.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Haditi General Trading","offers":[{"title":"In Stock (Same Day Delivery) \/ Montblanc","offer_id":46633971875971,"sku":"MBP1-131969","price":6160000.0,"currency_code":"IQD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/6575\/5779\/files\/XjiY7XZZRNStshjzFYNROw_ea1669de.avif?v=1772368010"}],"url":"https:\/\/haditi.com.iq\/collections\/great-characters.oembed","provider":"Haditi Gifts Trading","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
