Believe box should read stand ? Not clear on what you mean by a commercial style stick . Any freebie pen given away by a business , organization or government is okay ? Displayed so the logo is prominent , or hidden as much as possible ?

I am sure it can not have your name on it as some advertising pens get sent out. I have a mess of those too. Most people use a sharpie as the commercial pen. :):):)
