The
Fisher Space Pen is the ultimate in dependability. Every Space
Pen is guaranteed to perform in temperatures from -30 to 250 F, under water, in
zero gravity, at any angle and even upside down!
Its reliability means it’s the only pen you’ll ever need.
When astronauts began to explore the reaches of outer space, Paul Fisher realized
that there was no existing pen which could perform in its freezing cold or boiling
hot vacuum.
Countless experiments and a common sense approach to findings resulted in the invention
of the sealed and pressurized Fisher Space Pen cartridge and in 1967 after 18 months
of rigorous testing by Nasa, the Space Pen was selected for use by astronauts.
Still used on manned space flights, the Fisher Space Pen is unconditionally guaranteed
to give outstanding service both here on Earth and in Space.
Montegrappa,
the first Italian manufacturer of writing instruments, opened in Bassano del Grappa
in 1912. A century of superb craftsmanship has passed for this Italian brand known
around the world for its Italian creativity and style.
In the same historical building since 1912, Montegrappa has been a part of the lives
of great men, and it has also witnessed moments of intense creativity and innovative
breakthroughs. Ernest Hemingway and John Dos Passos, both Red Cross volunteer ambulance
drivers during World War I, crossed the threshold of the original factory entrance
on Via Cà Erizzo that was recently restored. That same entrance was among the first
in Italy to see the arrival of celluloid, a precious material obtained from cotton
that was already a protagonist of Montegrappa collections in the thirties.
Starting in the late thirties, the modern fountain pen became more than just a writing
instrument and was transformed into an accessory that made a fashion statement.
Thanks to the wide variety of colours, tasteful design, and special jeweler’s techniques
(for which the Vicenza area is famous), Montegrappa became a recognized symbol of
excellence. Although shapes and materials may change, all Montegrappa pens possess
distinctive features: the octagonal shape, the rotating sphere on the end of the
clip, and precious materials such as gold, silver, gems, and celluloid are the unique
elements that have made history.
The entire Montegrappa range is divided into two large families: the Regular Range,
composed of glamorous, beautifully designed accessories that make the daily task
of writing much more enjoyable, and the Limited Editions, an extraordinary blend
of craftsmanship and beautiful design inspired by the passions and myriad expressions
of human creativity and coveted by collectors and connoisseurs.
Much admired and appreciated for its outstanding quality and traditional craftsmanship,
Montegrappa has become a world ambassador of Italian style and elegance and is distributed
in nearly 60 countries.
Is writing uncomfortable? It's likely because you are using a stick shaped pen that
makes you grip it forcefully and push down into the page. This muscular effort can
trigger substantial pain for people who suffer from a wide spectrum of conditions,
from writer's cramp all the way to Arthritis.
Unlike conventional pens that rely on the strength of your grip, the PenAgain's
ergonomic design taps into the weight of your hand to apply ink to the page. The
PenAgain allows you to focus on guiding rather than gripping so
it avoids common pain triggers and helps you to write comfortably with ease.
Introducing the PenAgain... The right way to write.
Metal penAgain with soft rubber grip for comfort when holding!
