    The Parker pens are Fountain Pens, the others are ballpoint, but no name on them. The Parkers have never had ink in them, the Ball points were dry but I found the correct refills at Amazon.

    Fountain pens ... Such a joy when you're left-handed ... :rolleyes: And we had to use them at school. No ballpoint allowed. Every day I would get back home with a blue stained hand :shifty:

    Thanks.

    The two pens at the top are Montblanc Meisterstuck knockoffs. Extremely extremely common.

    The genuine ones of these models are about $200, $300 secondhand, maybe. The ones in the photo really don't have any tangible value.

    The other two pens are - I'm GUESSING, because I can't see everything - a Parker 51 and a Parker 45. They could be other models, but until I can see all the components, I dunno - there's loads of variations.

    Let's assume that they're a 51 and 45.

    The '51' is pretty famous. It was in production for something approaching 35, 40 years. Again, LOADS of variations for this pen.

    That said, they produced literally tens of millions of these, so they're not very valuable. On average, maybe $100 - $200. $300+, if it's a really fancy / rare model.

    The 45 came out in the 60s and lasted until fairly recently, 1980s, 1990s, I think. It's a workhorse pen, and not worth a huge amount of money, unless, again, it's a rare variation.
