Description :

Wonderful estate-fresh lot of five (5) vintage writing instruments dating from the 1930s through the 1960s. This group includes a mix of collectible fountain pens and mechanical pencils featuring striking Art Deco celluloid patterns and classic mid-century designs. An excellent lot for collectors, restorers, or resale.

1. Esterbrook "Phaeton" 300/101 Fountain Pen: Sleek olive green body with a brushed stainless steel slip-cap. Hooded nib design reminiscent of the classic mid-century aerodynamic style

2. Wearever Deluxe/Pennant Lever-Filler Fountain Pen: Stunning deep purple and lavender horizontally striated/grooved celluloid pattern. Features a gold-tone lever filler mechanism and cap band.

3. Vintage Brass 4-Color Mechanical Pencil: A heavy, utility-style gold-tone multi-pencil. Employs vertical sliding selector slots to alternate between four different lead colors.

4. Waterman Lady Patricia "Onyx" Mechanical Pencil (c. 1930s): The highlight of the collection. Crafted in the highly sought-after "Onyx" celluloid material, featuring a gorgeous amber/cream swirled background accented by thin red veins. Celluloid remains crisp and displays excellent color preservation for its age

5. Vintage Marbled/Swirl Mechanical Pencil: A vibrant yellow-green swirled celluloid pencil with striking deep burgundy veins, finished with a classic cone-style brass tip.

Items are being sold untested and as-is. Fountain pen ink sacs and internal mechanisms are unchecked and may require routine servicing, flushing, or restoration to be fully functional.
