Translations:Météore/5/en

The origins of Météore are uncertain, the company was founded in 1916 as Manifacture Parisienne de PPR (Porte Plume Reservoir) by L. Demilly (then general manager) and L. Degen (then managing director), based in Nanterre, then become La Plume d'Or in 1921. On the contrary, it can be excluded that the company is descended from the Franco-British Manifacturing Pen founded by Charcellay in Paris in 1910, as both appears in the Didot-Bottin yearbook as active in different locations. La Plume d'Or was still on the market after the end of World War I, producing two brands: Météore and L. Badois, and also for third parties. The second brand is linked to the activity of Luis Badois, holder of fountain pen patents both for his own then jointly with the 'La Plume d'Or.
