''Astoria'' was founded in [[1921]] in Hamburg by ''Georg Ilgner'', which until then had been the [[Montblanc]] director of the production. These, with the financial support of Herman Dietzel, Sigmund Popper and  Wilhelm Frings left [[Montblanc]] to start his own business. ''Astoria'' began producing very good quality [[Astoria Rientranti|safety]] pens, very similar to those of [[Montblanc]]. Even the company logo, consisting of a circle divided into four segments of alternating black and white color likes a lot, if only for the contrast of black and white color, the one of the company Ilgner came.

In addition to the [[safety]] models ''Astoria'' also produced [[lever filler]] pens with and a good number of  good quality [[overlay]] pens, coated in gold and silver. The company, as shown by [[:File:1922-07-Papierhandler-Astoria-Brause-EtAl.jpg|this announcement]], used also the [[Academia]] and [[Eminent]] trademarks. The company suffered a financial crisis in the early 30s, and in [[1932]] was reacquired by the [[Montblanc]] that maintained the production of pens with this brand until [[1936]], at least as regards the main production facility in Germany.

''Astoria'' pens produced in this period appear to be of the best quality, so they are very often treated the same way as [[Montblanc]], which erroneously (at least for models earlier than 1932) is considered a sub-brand. Having been active in the market for a few years, the ''Astoria'' are quite rare and therefore have a considerable value to collectors.
