First Auction of the Year, including Jewellery, Watches, Pens, Whistles, Lots of Crafting items, Plus the usual, Antique, Vintage and Retro items, Don't miss it!
The collection comprises 10 vintage writing instruments, including mechanical pencils and pens, presented in a stacked arrangement. Materials observed include various plastics simulating tortoiseshell, mottled green/black, and solid black, alongside metallic components that are silver-toned and gold-toned. One instrument is identified as a fountain pen due to the presence of a translucent yellow ink window section. Several metallic items feature ribbed or engine-turned detailing, consistent with mid-20th-century design. One silver-toned, ribbed instrument is visibly inscribed with the manufacturer name “MARK CROSS” on the barrel. The collection likely includes examples constructed from sterling silver, based on comparable market examples for similar vintage writing instruments.
