This is a nice lot of pens and parts for pen repair folks or collectors. A couple of the pieces appear to be rebuildable and the others good for parts but that decision is above my pay grade, so have at it! Here is what is in the picture, left to right, with a bit of commentary: Wearever combo pen and pencil, 1930s vintage. Marbled rose finish has wear and some scratches but I don’t see damage or cracking. Fill lever is hanging loose; plating missing on much of the metal; Wearever nib appears worn. Pencil end needs some cleaning to make it function smoothly; end screws off to reveal an eraser. This is a large piece: about 6” (152mm) long, capped. “Capitol Cabinet” by Aiken Lambert. This model was made as early as 1918 but I think this is later, probably 1930s or 40s. Barrel marked with model and Lambert name as above, + New York etc. Has “4 Kt A.L.Co. USA” nib with some heavy wear. Barrel has light scratches, etc. I don’t see a maker’s name on this fill lever style desk pen. It has an Esterbrook 1555 Gregg nib with bent tips. Heavy wear over entire pen. This black plastic dip pen is here only because it has a fountain pen type nib on it. The holder is in bad condition with cracking along much of the lower part. Nib imprinted “Sengbusch gold plated iridium tip 16.” I don’t see much in the way of gold plate, though, so it’s been used. But the points appear well-aligned. Parker “21” desk pen with the metal-caged “squeeze-type” refill sac. Barrel has scuffing and light marking here and there. Nib is dirty but appears in good shape. Sac feels flexible. No maker’s name on this combo pen and pencil. Nib marked “Stainless 4” and is in good condition with wear typical for its age. Cap has discoloration near top by pocket clip (this is on the front part only; it doesn't go around to the back of the cap) and chipping on end of cap. Looks like the clip has been slightly sprung but otherwise the overall condition of the piece is fair: the usual plating loss, etc. Pencil has no lead but works. Pencil end does not detach as with the Wearever above. (These are vintage items. They will show signs of use and wear. I can offer no guarantee, implied or stated, that they will function as well as a similar new product. I will note any major condition problems but do want the buyer to be aware of typical issues that may occur with vintage goods.)
