History:

In 1911 something remarkable by the name of Kaweco SPORT was created. A pocket fountain pen which could be carried everywhere. It only measured 10.5 cm when closed, but when the cap was mounted on top of the barrel, it grew to a standard sized pen.

Seppi Herberger already appreciated the features of this fountain pen. It was a Kaweco SPORT that commited his victorious tactics to paper. Tactics that made the German team win the World Cup in 1954. Kaweco's involvement in the sporting wold continued when in 1972 the Sport was marketed with a pendant for the Olympic Games being held in Munich Germany.
