in the ~70s, platinum (& sailor & pilot) made a ton of pocket pens¹ with screenprinted nature motifs. these are from a series of 8 designs that had white-lacquered bodies and matching mechanical pencils & ballpoints

considering i got them from 3 different sellers, my quartet are surprisingly similar! they all have their price tags², which i slip off during use, and they’re all likely NOS store displays/testers³. the fountain pens have (very, very nice, less common) 18k soft fine nibs

¹with ~60s-80s japanese fountain pens, “pocket pens” = this specific form factor. slip-caps and short when capped, with a cap that’s most of the length of the body so the pen is comfortably longer when posted

²the prices & tag style put these btwn the series' ‘69 launch and its early-70s ¥500 price increase, at which they also made the pencils shorter
