Parker è riuscita a diventare una marca molto apprezzata dai consumatori, dopo anni di continuo lavoro diligente e determinato per "produrre la penna migliore". DISCREZIONE 1863 George Safford Parker, nasce il 1 ° novembre. E’ stato un insegnante in telegrafia. 1888 Viene fondata la Parker Pen Company 1894 Avviene una grande svolta tecnologica con l’invenzione del sistema di alimentazione d'inchiostro “Lucky Curve“ che consiste nel curvare l’alimentatore permettendo all’inchiostro di scendere nel preciso momento in cui la penna è pronta per scrivere. Nei anni successivi Parker annuncia altre numerose innovazioni tecnologiche, tra cui: 1905 Black Giant 1921 DUOFOLD 1954 Jotter Ball Pen FIDUCIA 2008 Parker ha celebrato il suo 120o anniversario Sommario Duofold 6 - 7 Perché scegliere i nostri marchi ?

Some of the most expensive fountain pens in the world include LMont Blanc, Caran d’Ache, and Aurora. Many would recall that not too long ago, a controversy erupted over Mont Blanc’s limited-edition “Gandhi pens” and a case was filed before the Kerala High Court. There were two limited editions in fact, one in silver and the other in gold, a ‘Limited Edition 3000’ (i.e., 3,000 of it were manufactured) and a Limited Edition 241 (‘241’ for the 241 miles of the Salt March; 241 pieces of it were made). Both kinds had an image of Mahatma Gandhi on the nib. Mont Blanc’s decision to manufacture these pens provoked massive controversy: to begin with, it violated the Emblems and Names (Prevention of Improper Use) Act of 1950, which restricts use of the name or pictorial representation of Mahatma Gandhi.

  • The History of the Waterman Pen Company
    A History Of The Waterman Pen Company © Tancia Ltd 2013 Early attempts to create a pen that held its own ink The transition from mark making on surfaces such as clay with a pointed stylus to the use of ink and pen is believed to have begun at least 4000 years ago. The Romans developed an ingenious method for delivering ink to the page with the invention of a primitive fountain pen. A piece of reed from marsh grasses or bam- boo was cut to form a nib at one end and the stem was filled with ink. The writer could dispense the ink to the nib of the reed pen by squeezing the reed. What is not recorded in the history books is to what extent this early reservoir pen leaked or spoiled would-be papyrus masterpieces. There is also documentary evidence of an early prototype of a reservoir pen devel- oped in the Middle East in the 10th centu- ry AD. It is recorded in Kitab-al-Majalis wa ‘l-musayarat written in 953 that the caliph of the Maghreb, Ma’ad al-Mu’izz insisted on a pen that could be trusted not to stain his clothes or his hands. The text continues that such a pen was provided and that it could be held upside down without leak- ing whilst holding ink in its reservoir that was delivered to its nib.1 Quills and Dip Pens – the non-reservoir alternatives At around the same time that paper made its journey to Europe in the 8th century AD, quill feathers became the most popular writing instrument and remained so for a thousand years.

For this pen is built with a craftsman's care, with exacting skill born of 56 years' experi- ence. Here is a writing instrument which no ordinary mass production methods could ever achieve.

Sarmento Leite, 245, Porto Alegre – RS, 90050-170, Brazil Email: [email protected] Abstract: The introduction of the ballpoint pen and its consequent change in the prevalent fountain pen industry is presented as an empirical evidence of Christensen’s disruptive technology theory. This research paper analyses the different innovation strategies adopted by the fountain pen industry to survive to the attack of ballpoint pen spread. To meet this objective, case studies of Waterman, Montblanc and Parker companies are discussed. The data, collected from secondary sources, indicate that the fountain pen industry had a great reduction in their sales and later stabilised at a lower level by stressing their positioning at the luxury goods market, but also adopting and transforming the new ballpoint technology. The analysis of this cases leads to the conclusion that the ballpoint pen is truly a good example of Christensen’s disruptive technology because it contains all of Schumpeter’s types of innovation.

( \ 1 ABSTRACT This study is undertaken on the premise that Islam and Islamic law is to be taken into serious consideration in any future legislative reform of laws in Malaysia. Islam being the religion of the country and the strong religious sentiment of the Muslims (who form the majority in Malaysia) cannot be overlooked or dismissed lightly by the legislators in Malaysia. Reformation of intellectual property laws is timely, as we are now approaching to the dateline set by GATF-Trips agreement which aim is to improve our standard of intellectual property protection.
