The writing mechanisms, lead advance systems and ink functions have not been tested. Refills, leads and internal components may be absent, depleted, seized or require attention. No guarantee is made that any piece is currently usable. The items have not been dismantled or internally inspected due to the risk of damage. Maker, age and service or repair history are unknown.
