The 1920s saw rapid development of the Conway Stewart Pens product line.
Pens of several different types of filling mechanisms materials and sizes were offered for sale.
The business model proved successful for Conway Stewart and its market share increased at the expense of other established manufacturers.
As a result of this , Conway Stewart had outgrown its initial premises and in 1927 the company relocated to a larger facility which would serve as its home for the next two decades. During the depression years, the company was able to remain profitable, helped by the public’s perception of good value products. In 1935, Conway Stewart went public, raising additional capital at the same time by offering shares. The years of World War II proved difficult for Conway Stewart and many other manufacturers; there were shortages of materials but the company managed to survive by continuing to offer good reliable pens at reasonable prices.
