About this Item

First Edition, 2003. A Fine hardcover copy in black cloth stamped in gilt on front cover, without jacket as issued. Eccentric binding with abbreviated scarlet endpapers. Unpaginated. A celebrity design project promotional book built around the idea of having architects design fountain pens for Nobel Prize winner writers. Each pairing includes elegant color views of the designed pens, in addition to facsimile holographs of the recipients letters of appreciation tipped in. An extravagant gesture more characteristic of Italian character than American. Text in Italian and English. Collectible fountain pens are a serious affair. Seller Inventory # Q00914
