These were sitting in a cup and looked interesting enough to pick up:

Top to bottom:

Redilite (Autopoint sub-brand?) advertising pencil and lighter, Pat. Pdg. B&B

Kreisler Crown II 18Kt H.G.E. (that is Heavy Gold Electroplate as I understand it)

Micropoint "Made in USA" is all I can find.

Autopoint Burgundy "over the top clip".

The bottom pencil appears to have a thicker lead than the one above it. I would expect at least that the bottom one would accept 1.18mm leads.

I agree with the OP that it is an interesting collection.

The "Redilite" is one I haven't seen before - the B&B stands for Brown & Bigelow, makers of the "Redipoint." There's no relationship between B&B and Autopoint. Nice piece.
