The Wyvern Fountain Pen Company

The Wyvern Fountain Pen Company was a notable English pen manufacturer in the early 20th century, making its story intriguing for collectors and historians alike. Its location in Leicester, away from London where most English manufacturers were located, highlights its unique place in British pen manufacturing history.

This book shares the story of the company, the Finburgh family, and their ties to Leicester. Including writings from Sydney Finburgh, David Finburgh's son and the last family member to run the company, offers authentic, first-hand perspectives that shine a light on fountain pen making that only someone there at the time could provide.
