Macniven and Cameron

Macniven and Cameron Ltd., later known as Waverley Cameron Ltd.,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Waverley Cameron )〕 was a printing and stationery company based in Edinburgh, Scotland. The company was best known for its pen nibs, the "Pickwick", the "Owl", and the "Waverley", which were sold under the advertising doggerel:
==History==

In 1770, Nisbet MacNiven established a paper-making business at Balerno, outside Edinburgh. The firm soon diversified into stationery and moved to premises on Blair Street in Edinburgh's Old Town.
In the 1840s, brothers John and Donald Cameron became involved, and the firm became Macniven and Cameron.
The "Waverley" nib was invented by Duncan Cameron, another brother, and was unusual in having an upturned point, making the ink flow more smoothly on the paper. The "Waverley" was named after the Waverley novels of Sir Walter Scott (1771–1832), which were still hugely popular at the time. The new nib was initially manufactured by Gillott and others, until the company bought a factory in Bordesley, Birmingham, in 1900. It then manufactured its own nibs, fountain pens and printed stationery, until 1964, when the factory closed.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MacNiven and Cameron )
Macniven and Cameron also made pens called the "Pickwick", "Owl", "Phaeton", "Nile", "Hindoo" and "Commercial". The company filed several patents in relation to its fountain pens.〔(【引用サイトリンク】year=1919 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】year=1935 )
