Group of Excavated Civil War Period Mechanical Pens and Pencils

Group of Excavated Civil War Period Mechanical Pens and Pencils – We recently obtained a significant excavated collection that was assembled over a period of almost 50 years; amongst the impressive artifacts contained in this collection was the group of mechanical pens and pencils. This grouping has eight pens or pencils and one gold ink pen nib. All of the writing implements remain in overall, good, dug condition. These pens and pencils were significant possessions of soldiers writing letters home during lengthy camp hours.
