EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS TARZAN
As the body rolled to the ground Tarzan of the Apes placed his foot upon the neck of his lifelong enemy and, raising his eyes to the full moon, threw back his fierce young head and voiced the wild and terrible cry of his people.
-Edgar Rice Burroughs
Tarzan of the Apes
The Krone Edgar Rice Burroughs’ Tarzan pen honors one of the greatest fictional writers of all time with an outstanding, handcrafted writing instrument.
The cap is meticulously hand painted with a leopard design. Jungle vines are three-dimensionally sculpted around the bronze clip. There are two bands at the base of the cap; one in African Wenge wood and the other in bronze engraved with Edgar Rice Burrough’s signature.
Hand painted in rich vintage color, the barrel depicts the infamous scene of Tarzan swinging through the jungle carrying Jane under one arm. The blind cap is also in Wenge wood.
Accompanying each pen is an authentic bronze African money bracelet circa 1800 A.D. These African money bracelets were used for commerce during that time in addition to being worn as a display of wealth. Although originally shiny bronze in color, they have developed a unique patina over time.
Available in a worldwide Limited Edition of 388 fountain pens, 38 rollerballs both with bronze accents.
Also available are 18 Magnum pens, which are larger in size and have Gold accents. This Magnum pen also features the painted leopard design on gold leaf.
In addition are 8 Imperial pens, featuring hand painted Mother of Pearl cap and barrel. The accents are adorned with jewels. Along with each Imperial pen is a Letter opener with a hand painted handle.
