Good news for mechanical pencil lovers! We've restocked the
vintage pencil lead aisle with Sheaffer, Eversharp, Eagle, Parker,
Rite-Rite and Dixon. In addition to
being useful, some of the containers in this batch are little works of
art. Parker Vacumatic era leads in metal containers, Sheaffer leads in
little yellow metal tins, spectacular Art Deco graphics on Eagle Mirado
leads and a cute little container that looks just like a yellow pencil.
Be daring, go ahead and take a look, click on the photo!

1800s well into the 1930s. We're pleased to offer a small array of ca.
1900 scratch knife erasers for you today. These writing tools are not
seen as often today as they once were.

We rarely have knives, but some antique knives were specifically
intended for writing and desk top purposes and when that is the case, we
can't resist. This old celluloid office knife fits the bill! Watch
for more writing related knives coming in the near future. We're
currently sorting through a batch of quill knives we recently acquired.

Vintage oblique pen holders are swiftly becoming as hard to find
as a needle in a haystack. Imagine how delighted we were to find an
original billhead from Albert Magnusson dated 1914, Magnusson is still
considered to be one of the masters of crafting oblique pen holders!
