Translations:Gold Starry/6/en
In 1929,[1] with the search for a filling system that would allow a greater ink capacity, a particular model, the Rapex, was produced, with an original filling system (see patent nº FR-691384) driven by the rotation of a bottom knob. The pen however had little success for the delicacy of the system, and therefore is rather rare. In 1933 in Maurice Jandelle was replaced by M. Perouse, an executive of the company Viala Lilliput, producer of luxury pens in gold and silver enamel, which were also made by the Gold Starry. In addition, with the emergence of the streamlined style introduced by Balance, in the '30s the production of the Gold Starry passed from square shapes of the 20s to sleek lines. There remained the distinctive mark of the clip, jagged shaped and ending in a arrow.
- ↑ in the references is reported the 1931, but this advertisement allows to backdate the introduction at least to 1929, the year in which the relevant patent was applied for in Germany (nº FR-691384), even though it was granted in France only in 1930.
