THE EUREKA PEN

Following in their father’s footsteps following his untimely death, Charles and Alvis Leonardt formed connections in South America and Europe, brushing shoulders with royalty in the process by becoming penmakers to the Kings of Italy, Spain and Portugal.

Following the merger with Hewitt & Co, both brothers worked with ingenious inventor Hezekiah Hewitt to create the ‘Eureka Pen’ – commonly now known as a ball-pointed pen!
