I often don't do to well with auctions because they end for more than I can afford, but these were to nice to pass up. The price was great too!

The second auction, the lot of pens, looks like it has a solid gold eversharp, but I'm not sure.

i've occasionally found good deals in lots, as well. here's a lot of 18 pens that i got for $47 total--many are just junk, but i think there are two or three that will make it worth the pile.

Well done, I'd say! Please post an update when you can.

Well done indeed! Always nice to see folks still finding "hoards" of pens. Just saw a new article from the U.K. where these guys found a treasure trove of Roman and Byzantine coins; the whole "brick" of coins (stuck together after 2100 centuries!) had to be removed with a skip loader, weighing with the dirt a few thousand pounds!Posted Image

Wish we could find pens like that, right?Posted Image

It's true, most of the pens in large lots aren't much. However, one can pen can make it worth while!

Somebody got very lucky. Even if the pens are missing their nibs.

Oh my gosh! There's a bunch of junk, but there's a blue Waterman's 100 Yr, a blue circuit board WASP, several Duofold Sr's, an intriguing all sterling engraved Waterman's, and...check out the size of that Waterman's with the barrel girdle, top row, nine from the right, next to a Duofold Sr!!

Wow! I wonder who bought this lot! There is a beautiful unknown/Waterman hand etched/acid etched sterling silver full overlay pen, almost looks like a full length 0552 1/2. Also all the Parkers easily payed off the lot.
