The name WAHL-EVERSHARP is a proud
one in the history of writing instruments. EVERSHARP, the inventor and
first successful mass marketer of the mechanical pencil, goes back to
1915. WAHL was the brand name given to some of the finest fountain pens
ever made and goes back to 1917. The hyphenated name WAHL-EVERSHARP
first appeared on some of the finest “golden era” fountain pens in
1929. The Deco Band, the Doric and the Skyline fountain pens of the
1920’s, 1930’s and 1940’s were among the most successful fountain pens
and mechanical pencils ever made.
