This patent is a second point that bears witness of the presence, at least in early years, of a strong link with OMAS. The image of the filling mechanism used by these patented pens, present on the The King catalog found in the Omas archives, is in fact identical to the one on an Armando Simoni patent (nº US-1784078), that in the French version appears to have been achieved in Italy in 1929. A further indication that somehow it was the OMAS to provide technology to the The King in the early years of this company.Around the 1934, the Società Anonima Fabbrica Italiana Stilografiche and the production adopted the brand Radius, even though there are presumably contemporary examples use of the mark the King. The date of the name change to SAFIS is not precisely known,[1] but the brand Radius was recorded in 1934 with the new name, and we assume this to be the date of the passage.

  1. Letizia Jacopini in his book "La storia della stilografica in Italia", illustrates how Bruno Milocani and Emilio Pionzo witness the shift of production from the King to Radius in 1935 or so.
