• Extra Lead Storage: Select pencils inside this lot include loose pieces of vintage replacement lead stored directly inside the internal barrel storage areas.
• Eraser Condition: The internal erasers are original and show age-appropriate wear and hardening as pictured. The blue crosshatch and green marbled pencils have been photographed unscrewed to show the exact state of the eraser heads and threading.
