National Pen Company had its humble beginning as a tool and dye company in the Bronx, NY, as Modern Mold and Tool. The companys founder and current Patriarch Al Liguori, a machinist by trade, made some of the first ball point pens ever produced in the US. Liguori made pens for a number of specialty companies in the early years. His innovative designs were very popular and the company grew rapidly. In 1966 at Liguoris direction his brother in law Paul Stabile and eldest son Tom started the current marketing and manufacturing company National Pen Company (Now Internet Design Technology (IDT), LLC) National Pen grew rapidly by offering three full lines of imprint while its competitors only offered one. The company has always been a value added company opting not to sell commodities. Following the early years of offering the three line imprint the company introduced color decoration to the world of specialty products. In the 70s and 80s the company continued its growth offering inexpensive stick pens decorated products. In the mid 80s NP acquired its then largest competitor, also in the mail order business, US Pen and Pencil. This made NP one of the largest sellers of advertising specialties in the US.
