![]() The production of these early years was not yet clearly identified by the trademark Ancora. In 1920 he founded with a partner, Clerici, a company named Fabbrica e Commercio di Penne Stilografiche e Raffinati Oggetti per Arti Grafiche. According to reports from the founder's grandson, in fact, Zanini together with his wife Ester Marzari ran an emporium in Schio (Vicenza) where they sold everything including stationery, and it is likely that the starting year listed in said invoice refers to this.Īncora initial history is quite clouded, we know for sure that Zanini began its activities in the field of writing articles in Bologna, where apparently he was in contact with Armando Simoni (founder of OMAS) and where there are traces of his activities dating back to 1918. Finally, some invoces from 1941 are showing the claim Casa fondata nel 1902, but this almost certainly refers to the begininng of Zanini commercial activities, not to Ancora foundation. Lambrou, it was founded in 1909 by Giuseppe Zanini, in Sesto Calende, on the shores of the Lago Maggiore, but it is not known from which source Lambrou infers such a distant date on the company's official website, although sources are not indicated again, the origin of the company was reported to 1919 in Bologna, which is consistent with what has been indicated by others. ![]() The Ancora date of foundation is not known with certainty and there are conflicting versions. ![]()
