Scripto Ball Point Pens

 

The next few posts are going to be some new/old items that just showed up here in the supply room. Most of these Scripto pens from the late 50s,60s and early 70s you have seen here before. The new ones, for comparison are the three on the right side in boxes and the one on the right side of the display case. I just got hold of these four Scripto Prestige ball point pens. The Prestige was the expensive one during the 50s and 60s at about $1.69 per pen while the others were about $1.00. On the left side of the display are four different models of the T210. On advertising they were called Super Dollar,Dollar pen or maybe just Push Button pen. The blue two tone is a working T220 from the 70s. What a find. Scripto pencils are still the most collected item because they can be made to work but these scripto pens are starting to catch on because of their looks and the history associated with them. Add some to your collection before the supply room gets them all.
