Please Help With Identification Of Multiple Inherited Pens

[mira_mff]

Dear members, I have inherited some fountain pens from my aunt who inherited them from husband around 1985. They have been kept in very good conditions, some in original packing I believe. I tried to do some research myself but as I am not expert I would like you to help me identify if they have any value. I managed to identify Geha 722 (as it has original packing and is very nice, I like it myself to be honest) but I have some Pelikan, centropen, I think a Russian one and some others I am not so sure about. I know there is Waterman but I dont know what type it is. I am posting pictures and would appreciate a lot if you could help me. Thank you in advance for this help. BTW, uncle was in professional army at high position and traveled around the world a lot, maybe some of pens he received as gift I assume. The first picture is mixture (on the left starting with a pencil suisse made, then pen I dont know, has Benzinol written on the handle (I guess used as branded gift), then the green one is the Russian one, then Waterman but I dont know type, then Pelilkan, again I dont know type and then Geha 722.) The second is capturing the sets I have, I believe the pen on the right is MontBlanc as the roller pen has it written on it but the fountain pen has only a mark M in some kind of circle or square or what it is, then the middle one is Centropen (but dont know what type) and the one on the left I dont know, there is only some mark which reminds me of Euro but it is probably supossed to mean the nib of the fountain pen but I have no idea what brand that is.

Can you please at least refer some pages where I could look for the types of these pens myself? I tried google but the result of search is sometimes totally strange.

Can you please at least tell me what brand is the logo marked as P on the cap of the pen and what brand is the logo that looks like Euro (I think its picture of the nib as logo)? It would probably make my search easier at least a little bit.

Thank you in advance for any hint or help. If better pictures are needed, let me know, I will do my best.

I suggest that you put the pens on paper with marked numbers. In that case, a person can discuss and point to the particular pen easily and may request for close up pictures.

 

In 2nd picture:

1- 2nd one from top looks like Pelikan 400. But again I can't say for sure. close up pictures may help

2- Bottom one looks like Rotring Mechanical pencil.

 

But most of the pen looks unfamiliar to me, I am no expert by any means, but most of them have caps which I have not seen before.

That Geha 722....keep real good care of that cartridge in it will be the only one you can get....not made any more. Perhaps a converter will fit....but not a Pelikan converter.

You can needle reload the Geha cartridge.

Geha made a two headed cartridge....it's own side and Pelikan on the other side.

There are on vary rare occasions a few Geha cartridges on German Ebay.

I suspect that the green pen in the second picture, and that flighter fountain pen in the first picture both were made by Soyuz in what was back then Soviet union. But I am not an expect on Russian / Soviet pens by any means, and the only reason(s) for my suspicion is that integrated converter, and on the flighter that distinctive ink window.

Thank you all for your help. I managed to find out that some of the pens are actually Russian (Soviet), Soyuz or the other brand was MZPP or MZRR (I cannot recall now). The only somehow vluable are the Pelican which I identified as 140 (it is written on the cap, I just didnt know before), then Geha 722 but it doesnt have cartridge, it has the filling where you screw the handle (I am not sure the English word for it, actually not even Slovak) but I was not able to find out anything about the Waterman one. It has Waterman written on the pump and also W on the cap and the nib, but no luck in searching of the type. I am inserting better photo on case anyone would know.

 

Do you know if I can use Parker blank ink to try the pens out if they are working properly? Or shall I go and buy some regular blue ink instead?
