I bought this mechanical pencil today and I cannot find any marking or a brand.
The pencil is a 4 lead multi pencil.
The top twists one direction to select the desired lead choice and twists the opposite to extend the lead holder. There is a small rectangle that shows the current lead choice and the metal cap comes iff to store leads.
Most searches show versions with little levers but none that have a twist mechanism.
Google searches and Reddit have veen no help so any help is greatky appreciated.

Amazing, I spent all day searching and couldn’t even find anything similar but you found a documented ebay auction.
I have yet to search GUILLOCHÉ MECHANICAL PENCIL CIRCA 1930’s
But I’m hoping it leads me to more info.
Thank you.

Although I couldn’t find any other images besides the ebay austion leading to a name or brand for the pencil I did find other brands which made propelling pencils of the same or very close mechanical function, Faber, USUS, Schaeffer, Ceria, Magicolor and Kosca

Looks similar though the mechanism is different, I’ll check the Faber Castel catalog and see if maybe there’s another.
Thank you for helping.
