The Parker Duofold ‘Signature’ Limited Edition and Parker Ingenuity Special Edition pay tribute to Arnold Palmer’s legacy and the influence he still has on fans and professional athletes worldwide as they try to create their own.
Arnold Palmer was many things to many people...world famous golfer, golf course designer, skilled aviator, and a man with a down-to-earth common touch who endeared himself to the public like no other sportsman.
Arnold Palmer’s bold playing style of golf gained him a legion of fans known as “Arnie’s Army" who gave him the title of “The King” not only because of his ability on the course, but more importantly because of his sense of kindness and thoughtfulness.
95 professional victories including 62 PGA Tour Events and 7 Major Championships, as well as being inducted into the Word Golf Hall of Fame places him among the greats of the game and certainly one of the most popular.
When Arnold Palmer applied his pen to anything he was asked to sign, whether it be a formal document or one of the wide variety of items his fans put in front of him, there was no questions about the writer’s identity later on.
It is believed that he signed his autograph more often than any athlete in any sport in history and it’s estimated that his count is in the millions. He had a strong belief in legibility of his signature and took immense pride to ensure everything he signed was legible and recognizable. “What’s the point of signing something if the person can’t read it or later can’t even remember who it was,” he reasoned.
Arnold’s signature, paired with his equally familiar umbrella logo have become one of the most recognized icons in world sport.
The shiny, silver colored cap of this limited edition is covered by a subtle laser etched argyle pattern and is finished with a golden clip and ring. The pen has a bi-tone solid 18K gold nib, featuring Arnold Palmer's signature. The body of the pen has a beautiful burgundy red color, shading from brighter red at the front section to darker burgundy towards the rear end of the pen. It has a golden grip section and piston knob.
The pen comes in a prestige Ingenuity box covered with faux leather to give it a textured and tactile feel. The inside of the box is covered with black suede to give it an air of prestige. On the box the Parker logo as well as Arnold Palmer's signature are stamped and decorated with gold foil.
