To make a long story short today I found a box of old pencils. Most of them were unopened, in boxes, and in prefect condition. It wasn't until I got home that I realized how many there were.
I am wondering if anyone can help me. I was able to ID most of them....and I do not usually ask questions like this, but I am wondering if these have any collectible value. Is it worth my time even trying to come up with values for these? Do they have any value as a lot? There are a bunch of different kinds, and I know nothing about them. I could use the help. Thanks everyone!
I will do a couple of posts so please see the links below to find the rest of the pencils.
