313 S Peoria St. ChicagoIll. -
A prolific pen manufacturer of medium to high grade fountain pens. National
Pen Company used many different names. It has been said if you ordered 100
pens they would put any nameyou
wanted on them. I believe they also bought up other pen companies for their
names and/or machinery. They probably made more oversize flattop pens than any other company. In
1934 they owned the trademarks Lincoln, Gold Medal and Gold Crown [and
probably more]. They probably originated from the CE Barrett company which was at that
address in the 1920’s. Gold Bond was one of their higherquality pens. Gold Medal was possibly sold to Parker or made pens with
Parker patents later in the late 30’s. The Lincoln pens were earlier than
most of the other pens they produced and came in hard rubber. The Good
Service oversize flattops were also made by them.
