Skrip Ink Jar
Description
An account of the resource
The year: 1912. The place: Fort Madison, Iowa. Walter A. Sheaffer takes his grand idea of a pen-filling apparatus that utilizes a lever system and, with his life savings, founds the W.A. Sheaffer company. The physical space of the company is a modest one - the backroom of Mr. Sheaffer's jewelry store - but the vision of the company is much more than modest. Nearly a century later, we continue to offer generation after generation innovative, reliable and stylish writing instruments. These pens are used worldwide by loyal and diverse friends who appreciate elegance and class. We look back to the nostalgic past, to simpler times when a look in the eye and a hand shake was the norm. We look to the abundant future, by redefining the fashion of written communication in our technological world. You have a signature. And Sheaffer gives you the power to show the world what it is.

Description
An account of the resource
The success of the pin business eventually led the Oakville Pin Company to be acquired as a part of Scovill Manufacturing Company in 1923. Scovill Manufacturing was known as largest brass manufacturing companies based in Waterbury. For many years, it was the largest manufacturer of brass in the country. While Waterbury was the heart of Brass manufacturing, all pins were made in Oakville. According to some history books, a majority of the employees were women and they often brought their work to the comfort of their homes. Since there were no machines or devices to attach safety pins to the cards, the whole family helped to manually fasten each pin to the cards.
