Riga 3: Riga 3:  
Roughly in [[1925]] was introduced the [[Platignum]] brand; at this time it seems there has been a kind of reorganization of the company. It seems that the intention was to use the name ''Platinum'', but that this was not registrable as a trademark since it is the name of a metal, so the name was changed slightly and the ''Platignum Pen Company '' was created, that began marketing [[Platignum]] branded pens, focusing on the low-end production in  comparison to the pens distributed with the main brand.

Per un certo periodo i due marchi sono stati prodotti insieme, la [[Mentmore]] venne trasformata in società per azioni nel [[1930]]. Non è chiara la situazione, c'è chi riporta che il marchio [[Mentmore]] sia stato progressivamente sostituito da [[Platignum]], ma dalla fine degli anni '30 agli anni '50 esiste una ampia produzione di penne con questo marchio. Inoltre un brevetto del 1936 ({{Cite patent|GB|457212}}) riporta esplicitamente il nome di ''Spot Pen Company'' come nuovo nome della ''Mentmore Manufacturing Company''.

For some time the two brands were produced together; the [[Mentmore]] was transformed into a joint stock company in [[1930]]. The situation at that time is not clear, there are those who reported that the brand [[Mentmore]] has been progressively replaced by [[Platignum]], but by the late '30s to the' 50s, there is a large production of pens with this brand . Also a patent of 1936 ({{Cite patent|GB|457212}}) explicitly shows the name of ''Spot Pen Company'' as the new name of ''Mentmore Manufacturing Company''.
    
Intorno al 1939-1941 (?) venne prodotto il modello [[Mentmore Paramount]], una imitazione della [[Hundred Year]] della [[Waterman]], si trattava anche in questo caso di una penna in resina plastica con [[caricamento a levetta]], e dotata di un fondello decorativo in plastica trasparente analogo a quello usato della [[Waterman]]. La penna però era di linee più affusolate. Un'altra imitazione di penna famosa è la [[Mentmore 46]], penna a [[pennino coperto]] con caricamento a [[pulsante di fondo]], che si ispira chiaramente alla [[Parker 51]].
