Pencils

Wahl-Eversharp took the fountain pen world of the 1940s by storm with its very modern looking Skyline pens. This pencil was a match to one of those pens, although Eversharp didn't always give pencils the same name as the pens. We love the contrast of black and the green striped upper half of this vintage pencil. It is an early clicker that still works well. It comes with spare 1.1mm leads. A hardened eraser is under the clicker. You'll see some wear and a touch of brassing on this pencil, but we suspect everyone shows a bit of wear and brassing after 80 years on earth. 13.2cm.

Wahl-Eversharp didn't call these pencils Skyline pencils. Even though it is a match to the Skyline pen, it likely had an alpha-coded or alpha-numeric name. As an early click-advance pencil, it uses 1.1mm leads. Pull out the clicker to reveal a somewhat fresh eraser and a couple of spare leads. Deep burgundy is the color of the pen. You'll find the vintage pencil is well-worn, but there are no cracks nor deep scratches. Works well! 13.7cm.

Among our favorite Montblanc designs is the Montblanc Czar Nikolai II. The stunning malachite green and vermeil look fantastic together. Part of a limited edition series, this brings incredible elegance to luxury pencils. For those not familiar with vermeil, it means the pen is made of solid sterling silver and plated with gold. Our pen has serial number KM203324. We guarantee the pencil is authentic. Twist the tail cap to advance its .7mm lead. Comes with a partially used eraser and spare leads inside the pencil. No cracks or deep scratches. However, it does have a little very light scratching and wear to the vermeil barrel. 14cm.

Among the less commonly found colors of the modern Parker Duofold line is this beautiful jade. Similar to vintage pens, it is nice tribute to the early Parker Duofolds of the 1920s and '30s. Our modern Parker Duofold pencil works well and sports a .5mm lead. You advance it with a twist of the tail cap. Our preowned luxury pencil does show a little wear from use, but there aren't any cracks or deep scratches. Under the golden blind cap of the tail is a used but still-fresh eraser and spare leads. 13.1cm.

Perhaps our favorite color combination on the Parker 100 pencil is this sky-blue and brushed-gold design. Our preowned luxury pencil is in great working order with a new eraser and spare .5mm leads. You'll see some scratches on the brushed gold cap and nose cone. Twist the cap to advance the lead or close up/retract the lead mechanism. Makes math, crosswords and sudoku more fun. 13.8cm.

Parker Duofold pencils are remarkably made and engineered devices. Nearly 100 years after its manufacture, this black-and-pearl design still works great. Senior length, this pen is a great sample of these vintage pencils. It has some noticeable wear from use. The tail topper has a little denting from a drop and a few little dimples on its side. Traces of brassing can be seen. It writes well with a 1.1mm lead that advances smoothly with a twist of the tail topper. 14cm capped.

If you are looking for a bargain on a Parker Duofold Senior pencil, please take a closer look. Nearly 100 years old, this orange permanite beast is still working well. Twist the tail cap to advance and retract its 1.1mm lead. Click the headline to see easily that it is more than a little flawed. The pencil got dropped years ago on its twist top crown, denting it down on one side. Plus, its permanite outer shell has a bad crack under the pocket clip. 14.1cm.

Sheaffer PFM V pencils were the pinnacle of the line. One of the rarest colors of PFMs is gray. Our vintage pencil has the bonus of being ALMOST New Old Stock. Click the headline photo to see where we turn over the pencil to reveal its pricing sticker! Maybe NOT QUITE NOS, the eraser seems to have been completely worn down. Nevertheless the pencil shows little more than shop wear and works great. 13cm.
