L'azienda nacque come produttore italiano imitando i modelli di penne stilografiche americani della stessa epoca, ma ottenne subito un buon successo per la qualità della produzione e la validità delle penne. In particolare poi l'azienda, in un periodo di forte nazionalismo e sotto le spinte autarchiche del regime fascista, fece fortemente leva nei suoi materiali promozionali sull'italianità delle sue penne, che poi, non essendo sottoposte a dazi doganali, avevano anche il vantaggio di un costo più basso.

The company was born as an Italian producer, imitating the Americans pens models of the same period, but it immediately got a good success for its production quality and for the functionality of its pens. In particular, in a period of strong nationalism and autarkic policies under the fascist regime, the company made a strong leverage in its promotional materials, that its pens were not subject to customs duties, having the advantage of a lower cost.
