PARKER STILL MAKES PENS BUT NOT IN JANESVILLE

George S. Parker founded Parker Pen Company in 1888 in Janesville and resigned as president of the company, on this date, in 1933 to become Chairman of the Board.  His son, Kenneth Parker became the new president.

The Parkers are long gone but the pens remain.  The company is now owned by Newell Rubbermaid, located in New Haven, East Sussex, England.
