− | Nel 1927 la [[Carter]] introdusse una nuova linea di penne in [[celluloide]], denominata [[Carter INX Pen]], mantenendo lo stesso stile ''[[Flattop]]'' dei modelli in ebanite, ma realizzate in colori di grande impatto. Questi primi modelli erano prodotti in diverse dimensioni, con pennini di misure comprese fra la 2 e la 7, ed identificati da un numero la cui ultima cifra indicava appunto la misura del pennino. Vennero prodotti anche modelli da scrivania (ma in due sole misure, la 6 e la 2) e penne da donna con cappuccio ad anello senza clip.

These first models were produced in different sizes, with nibs measures between 2 and 7, and identified by a number whose last digit indicated the nib measure. There were produced also desktop models (but only in two measures, 6 and 2) and ladies models with no clip, but with a cap ring. |
