In partnership with the National Archives Store, Retro 51 has created this beautiful collectible pen with the most famous of all American signatures--those on the Declaration of Independence.

The esteemed document's signatures are screened on the pen's parchment-colored lacquered barrel, creating an elegant reminder of the power a signature can wield. With a brushed finish to its antiqued brass clips and trim, a cap band engraved with National Archives and the crown commemorating 250 years, this exclusive, individually numbered piece lends significant weight to a collection of special pens. Please note that we will only accept return purchases of this item when they are sent back in an unopened, sealed condition.

Drafted by Thomas Jefferson between June 11 and June 28, 1776, the Declaration of Independence is the nation's most cherished symbol of liberty. It was adopted by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776. Fifty-six delegates signed the Declaration and announced that the 13 American colonies, then at war with Great Britain, regarded themselves as independent states and no longer a part of the British Empire. Instead, they formed a union that would become a new nation, the United States of America. The original Declaration is on permanent exhibit in the Rotunda at the National Archives Museum.
