For many years the history of the  ''Williamson - Turin'' brand has been distorted by one of those many name coincidences that have led to the assumption that this Turin-based company was, at its inception, started as an import business for pens made in the United States, later achieving a success that would allow it to survive the closure of the original company. Thanks to in-depth historical research on the brand by Paolo E. Demuro<ref>gathered in his booklet ''"Riccardo Amisani's WILLIAMSON SAFETY FOUNTAIN PEN, Turin, misleading clues,"'' which he kindly donated to us, and from which much of the information on this page has been taken.</ref> it was instead possible to ascertain that it was a completely Italian firm.
The ''Williamson'' brand has a very interesting story, and is considered among the most important Italian manufacturer between the wars. But the original company was not Italian but American and active from the end of 1800s. The Italian company seems instead to be born initially as import distributor for the pens produced in the United States, achieving a success that survived at the closing of the original company.
