In this early period there is trace of some [[Parker]] models ([[Duofold]] and [[Thrift Time]]) marked ''Geo. S. Parker - fabbricato in Italia'' whose production is attributed to [[OMAS]]. There is a debate about these pens, whether they are a real production on [[Parker]] commission, made to circumvent the restrictions by the autarkic policies of the fascist regime, or it is a semi-official production ordered by the [[Parker]] agent for Italy, Edoardo Webber, which was facing a supply shortage, or whether it really was a clandestine (and illegal) production. As there are no documents, and no other findings than proof of a subsequent relationships between Simoni and Webber for the production of [[Saratoga]] fountain pen, there is any definitive conclusion.
