Kevin Roberts CEO Worldwide of Saatchi & Saatchi comments on Grahams Talent
The story brings the "Nothing is Impossible" founding spirit of
Saatchi & Saatchi into focus, super-miniature focus.
The motto has long been engraved in the steps of Saatchi &
Saatchi's founding Charlotte Street office in London, thanks to
Maurice and Lord Charles Saatchi. Enter "the world's smallest
engraver" Graham Short, a man with hands of genius who thinks in
microscopic extremes and swims at least 5,000 metres a day.
Invisible to the eye, it took 400x magnification, late nights, 7
months and 150 attempts to create the world's smallest engraving by
human hand. This is a guy who has engraved the Lord's Prayer on the
head of a gold pin and the right to bear arms from the American
Bill of Rights on the firing pin indentation of a silver bullet.
For the world cup, Mr Short catalogued on a football stud all
England's goal scorers, from Wilf Mannion (1950) to Steven
Gerrard.
Another case of Nothing is Impossible.
