LOL, yep, sorry grip, thought you might like a real challenge ! Very Happy

I will take some better photos, and look for any indication of when these could have been made, they actually say patent pending on them if I remember, although it's not a lot to go on !

Doe's anyone know then the earliest is that they started using brass for material ? got to at least 1930 ish ?

There is a Patent number on the pen. Patrick gave me a link for English patents to look for it but it is like looking for a needle in a hay stack. I did try to do some research on it but have had no luck so far. When I get home from work tonight I will post the patent number and the link in case any of you want to give it a go.

Ah so yours actually have a number on ? Mine just say 'patent pending' on the screw cap(i've not looked at them for a while, but I'm certain there isn't a number on my ones), If you can give me a number I will look into it.

Not sure when brass was first used, I would have though it was earlier than the 1930's but could be wrong on that.

Sorry guys, too busy with work to have time to get on here. I checked my pen dart and I was mistaken. It says PATENT PROV around the top cap. I tried looking back in the 1940's - 50's era. Did not have any luck so far and it is like looking for a needle in a hay stack. Only someone like Grip would have that kind of time for the mindless research. Sounds like a winter project to me.

I was really suprised they're that old, I thought they were from the 90's maybe.

Great to see stuff like this, I also found something else that looks a bit mad, will post it in a sec, my internet crashed and I need to find it again.

Google have a patent search, I have been trying to refine my search terms but have noticed it's only annoyingly showing 'US Patents' (despite searching for UK ones).

I am just reading up on the words "PATENT PROV" (The words stamped on the brass cap).

Seems to mean - "Provisional Patent" or "provincial Patent" (not sure what the difference is) , which is described here - http://inventors.about.com/od/provisionalpatent/a/Provisional_Pat.htm

Seems to be that it gives you a year or so's cover to test out your product before going for a full patent.

I've cheated a bit here and email the intellectual property office to see if they can offer any advice and and possibly point us in the right direction.

Awsome finds. I gotta have that retractable dart pen. That is a US Patent taboot. I was looking only under English patents figuring that were it was from since you guys have all off the cool stuff.

After reading some of the 70's mags, often the new stuff says patent applied for in U.S. before it does the U.K. I wonder if it was quicker to have a patent granted in the U.S.?

Id just like to throw mine into the mix, Iv'e come across four sets of these now, three of them in the Jack Hood tin, and then Stuarts Torpal Darts, Mine came in the tin with the same N.O.T.W flights as Stuart's. When Steve P sold his collection he had a set in the tin with the same flights, so I dont Think Darren's got misplaced into the wrong tin either. Maybe Jack Hood Bought a few sets and repackaged them, or maybe Torpal bought a few sets of Jack Hood and re packaged them, or maybe even they both bought from the same supplier and packaged them,

Yeah totally agree shafted, Jack Hood must have either purchased a job lot (or Torpal purchased a load of cases).
To coincidental.
