“Enter the Dragon”–It’s the year of Bruce Lee Pens

Introduce me to someone who hasn’t watched “Enter the Dragon” movie more than once. Bruce Lee has been “Icon” for ages and many of the martial arts followers like you and me would hardly find any one who hasn’t done a Bruce Lee styled “screaming” on somebody in your high school.
Its always good to remember somebody so iconic (who eventually lived even after his death) on their birthday anniversary rather than the death anniversary and that what exactly Montegrappa has done .Montegrappa has released the their second “Icon” Series pens and its based on none other than Bruce Lee,the name,the legend,that stays always close to heart.

At the very first look,it has the color(red) and the similar design pattern of Montegrappa Eternal bird. It comes in both Fountain Pen and Rollerball Pen. The Montegrappa Bruce Lee Sterling Silver Fountain Pen costs $5,110 and the Rollerball pen costs $4675.The Gold with Diamonds Rollerball pen costs more than the Gold with diamonds Fountain Pen.

Another good news for collectors regarding this pen is that its based on the “The Dragon” pen from Montegrappa that is now only available in the collectors circle. Bruce Lee was also known as “The Dragon” as he was born on the day and the hour of the dragon of Chinese Horoscope.So its another chance for collectors who missed out on the dragon.Especially new collectors ,as the Dragon came out in 1985 and was an instant hit.
Bruce Lee is a legend and there are so many events and fundraisers started in his name every year.
