Kennedy Limited Edition 1917 ballpoint pen, makes great allusion to this, from the surface that evokes rigging under the lacquer of the body & cap to the lifebuoy of JFK's Victura. The naval star that adorns the cone of the writing instrument is an allusion to Kennedy's career in the U.S. Navy, as are the colors of the American flag: red, white & blue. The engraving that decorates the cap's ring is inspired by Kennedy's campaign for the presidency, which he won in 1960 with his slogan, "A time for greatness". FInally, the number of pieces in the edition - 1917 - represents the birth year of this exceptional politician, who accomplished so much in a period of great international tension. The Size is 5.75".
