''The Scotland'' è uno dei due marchi, il più antico, usati nella dalla [[Stiassi e Tantini]] per la produzione delle loro stilografiche. Sulla origine delle penne ''The Scotland'' sono state fatte le ipotesi più varie, attribuendone la produzione talvolta alla [[Omas]], talvolta alla [[Montegrappa]] o ad entrambe.<ref>recentemente pure alla [[SAFIS]], anche se questa ha origini più tarde; al momento non è nota alcuna evidenza documentale al riguardo, e le opinioni sulle somiglianze delle forme e le lavorazioni lasciano il tempo che trovano.</ref> La uniche certezze sono quelle relative alla relazione del marchio con la [[Stiassi e Tantini]] che risulta titolare del marchio registrato, e in assenza di evidenze specifiche quella della produzione su commissione resta soltanto una ipotesi senza nessun fondamento concreto.  

''The Scotland'' is the first trademark, the oldest one, used by [[Stiassi e Tantini]] for their fountain pen production. Many hypothesis are made on  ''The Scotland'' pens origins, attributing their production sometime to [[Omas]], sometime to [[Montegrappa]] or both.<ref>recently also to [[SAFIS]], else if [[SAFIS]] was founded later, but to now no documented evidence is known and similarities by models o works cannot considered a proof.</ref> The only confirmed evidence is the brand relation with [[Stiassi e Tantini]] who was the owner of the trademark registration, and without a documented evidence, production by other brands is just a still unsupported hypothesis.  

''The Scotland'' branded pen have a very high general quality, in par with the production of the more famous Italian producer of that time. Because the short live of the brand, these pens are quite rare, and so highly sought by collectors.{{Infobox_Brand|The Scotland}}

Le penne marchiate ''The Scotland'' sono in generale di ottima qualità, alla pari con quella dei migliori produttori della stessa epoca, inoltre, dato il periodo di vita piuttosto breve del marchio, sono anche abbastanza rare, cosa che le rende di elevato interesse collezionistico.

The history of the [[The Scotland]] brand is still very uncertain. In [[1920]] the two ''[[Stiassi e Tantini]]'' members founded also ''A.S.C.A.'', acronym of ''Azienda Specializzata in Cancelleria ed Affini'' (meaning ''Company Specialized in Stationery and Related''), and registered the company name ''The Scotland Pen Italiana'' with the Chamber of Commerce of Bologna, presumably by virtue of the strong anglophiles trends in the Italian market, which at the time saw many brands using english names. There are no know information about when production was effectively started, but it's generally assumed to be in the '20s.
