The original name of the company was "The Popular
Fountain Pen Co". This dates back to 1886 [or earlier]. High quality eyedropper and self filling fountain pens.
I believe he had his pens made by other companies and was only a
designer/inventor. He sold an early ink-maker pen called the "Security" which according to him
held a years ink supply before you needed a replacement cartridge. He also sold a pen called the Nosak, which he
claimed had no bladder and was filled by the suction of the cap? I am
guessing that this was a blo-filler and the cap would fit snug
enough to produce a vacuum. Out
of business by 1922. Trademarks included Nosack [or Nosak] , Record,
Security , John Hancock,
Red Robin and more. Also made
stylo pens. |
