About Speedball


Founded in New Jersey under the moniker C. Howard Hunt Pen Company, Speedball is exemplified by their rich manufacturing history. Starting in 1899, the company produced steel pens, with a perfected design in 1913. The new pen was developed alongside master letterers Ross F. George and William H. Gordon featuring a nib with reservoir. The name Speedball refers to the efficiency of the pen, which cut working time in half compared to older models. Over the years, Speedball began to offer a wider range of products for a multitude of artists. The company now produces high-quality, water-based ink for screen printing and serves the ceramics community with a range of glazes, underglazes, and pottery wheels. No matter the era, Speedball’s offerings have continued to grow and evolve, with a strong dedication to providing artists with superior products and service at an affordable price.

In addition to a commitment to leading product innovation and service, Speedball also makes great effort to be an active participant in the greater artistic and global communities through organizational-based outreach.
