From the left a near mint example of a Q.F. ( Quick fill, vacuum style lower priced model), a short run means these aren't easy to find but are very difficult to open to repair so most are for looks only, this one has excellent barrel clarity. In the middle a Symetrik style vest pocket pen (4.25"), again these are very hard to find and way less common than the ringtops. Lastly a flat top Endura ( 4.25") from the end of this style, note the inlaid crescent not often seen on this style, this also has old clip hole repaired (factory?), you can just see the square below the crescent ( about half way down the cap).
