The dazzling New York of the Gatsby era, where the sparkling Art Deco skyscrapers in the blue evening skies inspired the design of the Great Characters Homage to The Great Gatsby Special Edition. Created as a nod to an early Montblanc writing instrument of the Art Deco era, the surface of the barrel, fashioned using a special technique, seems to reflect the booming city’s brightly lit high-rise facades at night. No fictional device, but actually shining like the green light on the dock at Daisy’s house in ‘The Great Gatsby’, the fluorescent Montblanc emblem in the cap top captures and stores light during the day, so that it glows in the dark. The apparent power of money is symbolized in the edition by the platinum-coated clip which takes the form of a money clip. Its rounded opening is resplendent with the initials of Jay Gatsby as a rhomboidal gold coated Art Deco monogram. The myth of the American dream is referenced by fine rings in the colours of the American flag encircling the cap ring.
