Industrial interiors. Look at all those hard working objects. Filing cabinets, industrial lights. This reminds me that we need to go through our collection of vintage and antique tools and objects - take some photos and write up some stories to share. Saw this here. See more here.
Saw this here. Lovely erasers. Makes me think of our Palomino Blackwings, and our General’s Test Scoring Pencils. Lovely pencils.
General’s Test Scoring Pencils have a soft black graphite lead that were originally used for Scantron Aptitude Testing. This superlative pencil lays down a nice dark line, making it ideal for the vision impaired. Refill Pencil Dispenser with these. Made in the USA.
The iconic Palomino Blackwing Pencil 602, favored among artists, designers and writers for many years, is set above the rest for its firm productive lead. New graphite formula provides 25% to 35% longer line per millimeter of wear compared with the Palomino Blackwing. The tip will keep its form long beyond that of other brands. Rectangular ferrule allows for replaceable erasers and keeps the pencil from rolling away on slanted surfaces - much like a carpenter’s pencil. Hexagonal incense-cedar and graphite. Made in Japan. Measures: 8” long x ¼” diameter. Call 617.497.1221 for replacement erasers.
