La [[Wirt]] è stata fondata nel [[1884]], e per circa due decadi è stata il maggior produttore mondiale di penne stilografiche, superando abbondantemente le produzioni effettuate nello stesso periodo dalle ben più note [[Waterman]] e [[Parker]].

The company fate is substantially related to that of the founder family, ''Paul E. Wirt''. His son, who was taking over from his father in running the business, died in 1921, and only after four years ''Paul E. Wirt'' went out of business by selling the company. The company remained active for a short time in the production of plastics, but the great depression of 1929 led it to a premature end.{{Infobox_Brand|Wirt}}

Wirt'' all'incirca nel [[1884]] come impresa familiare, anche se questi, di professione avvocato, aveva iniziato ad occuparsi della produzione di penne fin dal [[1880]], conseguendo un primo brevetto nel campo nel 1882(?).<ref>al momento non si è reperito il numero dello stesso ma [https://web.archive.org/web/20120314000506/http://www.kamakurapens.com/Paul_Wirt/Paul_Wirt_Company_History.html qui] viene indicata la data dell'11 ottobre 1882.</ref>
