Happy Hallowe’en! I’m not sure how a German language pencil catalogue landed at a “Sears” store in Canada, but so be it. This is Faber-Castell’s catalogue for their children’s line. A late addition to our series on pencil boxes, the Nic Nac Box is a less known offering from sharpener manufacturer KUM.

There is also a [...] The Fila Electrographic 203 is an exceptional pencil. The lead is of such high quality [...] Found by accident – the familiar Faber-Castell Grip 2001 and Jumbo Grip in alternate finishes – red and blue, rather than silver. The red and blue Grip 2001s (Grips 2001?) don’t indicate a degree, but appear similar to either a B or 2B. A round pencil with grip enhancements, this is Faber-Castell’s latest “design pencil”. We saw another version last year. It seems like an ongoing occasional series. |
