Montblanc Great Characters Edition: the father of Mickey Mouse
Wonder and perseverance are two words that perfectly describe this man. After a difficult start, Walt Disney had to face several obstacles in his journey and, with the support of his loved ones and loyal collaborators, he managed to establish himself in the world of the 7th art, which he revolutionized, whether through "Steamboat Willie," the first short film with a soundtrack, or "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," the first animated feature film with a soundtrack and in color.
Montblanc created, in collaboration with The Walt Disney Company, the writing instruments Montblanc Walt Disney Special Edition that highlight the most significant events of his life, his journey, and his personality:
With its refined design inspired by the world of the famous creator, the Montblanc Great Characters Walt Disney Special Edition Ballpoint Pen wonderfully embodies the spirit of innovation and imagination. This unique model is as appealing for its elegance as it is for the subtle nod to the world of animation and Disney magic. The shape of these pens is first inspired by the monorail system of Disneyland Park, representing Walt Disney's great passion for trains. He discovered this passion by following his doctor's advice, which was to find a hobby to relieve the immense professional pressure that was deteriorating his health. Since then, trains have held such an important place in his life that all proposal plans for the construction of Disneyland Park included a railway.
On the body and cap made of precious resin of the different pens are hidden several Mickey Mouse figures, reminiscent of the fun game some fans play in Disneyland Park: searching for the hidden Mickey Mouse heads scattered everywhere. Walt Disney's signature has been reproduced on the top of the cap.
The geographical coordinates engraved on the cone honor an important place for his career beginnings: the location of Walt Disney's uncle's garage, where he and his brother crafted a camera tripod, an invention that would greatly help them. The colors black, red, and yellow are a reference to the character of Mickey on the original poster of Steamboat Willie, the short film where the famous mouse first appeared and whose success would propel Walt Disney's career.
This edition also offers a notebook and inks in cheerful colors.
Montblanc has added to its list of tributes one that initiated a major turning point in animated cinema and whose legacy will endure for centuries. Always with luxurious materials and great expertise, the German brand has infused the very essence of Walt Disney. Don't wait and visit our site to get one of these pens available in limited quantities!
"All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them."- Walt Disney
