Anyone note a list of his brands? I think I see some Faber-Castell but can't ID anything else.
It's a colorful stall, that's for sure. Does he make the pencils there? I can't read the writing in the photos but it looks like there are no prices (I don't see any numbers). Can someone who is able to read this chime in?

The front matter appears to be a verse from Qur'an and below it in Farsi he declares he has 'entrusted all matters to God, the same God that is the protector of its creation'.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

The world of Colored pencils
Going through the narrow alleys of the stationary bazaar, there's a name that's familiar to all and an address that's hacked on all the tradespeople's minds. If you're looking for colored pencils, everyone'll point you to Mr. Rafieh's shop. "It's been thirty years that I get my energy from setting up kids with their colored pencil box. At the moment I have one of the biggest collections of colored pencils.", he says. Beginner and professional painters alike come to him for recommendations on colored pencils. The rare old models from the west or the ones produced in the country, he has them all. Mr. Rafieh's colorful stall has been drawing the attention of passerby for many years now.

[[R to L]: Khaastan (To desire/wish) Tavaanestan (to have ability) Ast (is)]
That's a popular Iranian saying. It means "To desire/To will is to achieve." (Where there is a will, there is a way.)
