The [[Asterope]] model was introduced in 1934, two years after the similar design of the [[Pullman]] model by [[Météore]]. This pen can be considered an ancestor and forerunner of the [[Capless]], produced by [[Pilot]] 30 years later. The pen had no cap; the nib could be moved inside the body of the pen, through a side slider, and was protected by a closing lid that opened when the nib was extracted. The pen had some success for its characteristic of being usable with one hand alone.
