Fountain Pens Of Denmark

[bigben]

The Pan pen was made in Germany by Oberrheinische Federhalterfabrik Zahn, Leser & Compagnie Heidelberg and Mannheim/ Germany - NOT in Norway!

 

There is at least one Norwegian brand called Pan. They were produced by "Norsk Fyllepennfabrikk". This is a "Pan Jr.", a fountain pen my father got from his grandmother when he was young (around 1957):

OK, I won't argue. I know too little about it. I thought this pen was made in Norway, because the Norwegian producer made fountain pens called Pan. This pen can just as well be a German Pan.

 

Edit: There is a Norwegian commercial with this pen in it:

I'm pretty sure that the Pan pen shown above was assembled in Norway, but using at least some parts that were made in Germany - the nibs, for example, were probably made by Bock.

 

I have two Pan Jrs myself; on both of these, the nibs are marked "1st Kval Edelstål", which is a clear indication that they have not been made for the German market, at least.

 

Also, the cap band of the pen above has a pattern that has long traditions in Norway. I have some Pan pens with similar cap bands, but most of my Pan pens have simple, unadorned cap rings.

_{Does anyone know if Ballograf ever made fountain pens?}

Ballograf made fountain pens - I'm using one at work right now. Nothing remarkable but fuctional, mine is a slim golden cartridge filler. Looks like the Waterman Exlusive/Executive pens although the nib isn't gold.
