Curiosity: Not everyone knows that ... the Fixpencil, launched in 1929, was the first metal pencil holder with a clip, but it was made of steel. As a historical symbol of Swiss design, the Fixpencil even appears on a Swiss postage stamp, like other characters or symbols of the country: Heidi or the clock tower Zytglogge of Bern.
