List and Details of the Lot Components: • Double Antique Inkwell: Solid structure with a heavy black glass base, equipped with a double compartment for transparent faceted glass bottles and sturdy metal caps. Includes a red-tinted wood pen-holder straw. • Antique Small Box "C. Manfredi" (Turin, pre-1920): Very rare promotional case with a sliding drawer opening, bearing the beautiful period engraving of the emporium "C. Manfredi - Novità, Profumerie, Biancheria Americana e Trastulli" located at the historic address of Via Finanze No. 3 and 5 in Turin (the street renamed Via Cesare Battisti after World War I). An exceptional piece of Italian commercial memorabilia. • John Mitchell No. 0419 Box with 47 Original Nibs: Original cardboard box decorated by the famous Birmingham firm, commemorating the medal won at the Paris Exposition of 1855. Contains 47 original John Mitchell nibs (box largely intact for its era). • Large International Lot of Loose Nibs (25 additional pieces): Extensive extra assortment of historic nibs for dipping in excellent condition. • Lot of Antique Sealing Wax Highly interesting selection for Italian postal history, consisting of: • Staff with official engraving "REGIE POSTE ITALIANE" (Regno d’Italia period, pre-1946). • Stick with factory mark "Superiore Morandi", historic Italian manufacture. • Thin cylindrical wax stick for delicate seals marked in English "Vermilion WAX" (high-quality vermilion shade). • Rare Desktop Advertising Display: Block of solid wood cut in a crescent shape, covered in two-tone white and red paper, bearing on the front the original silvery illustration of an eagle with wings spread, gripping a branch. • Vintage pocket pencil sharpener in brass by USO, produced in Germany in the 1920s or 1930s by Fusor GmbH in Berlin.
