The Leadhead's Pencil Blog - Volume 3

The Leadhead's Pencil Blog began in 2011 as an online update service for the author's first book, The Catalogue of American Mechanical Pencils. It is now a standalone resource for vintage and antique mechanical pencils, currently featuring 1,200 articles. This Volume picks up where Volume I left off and includes original research, extensive images and patent drawings for the second full year of the blog, covering "The Big Four" of pencils - Wahl Eversharp, Eagle, Autopoint and Sheaffer - as well as other highly collectible brands, such as Tri-Pen's Triad, W.S. Wicks, Parker and Conklin. Also included are many obscure and forgotten brands that have not been written about in the decades since they first appeared on the market. Part encyclopedia and part travelogue, The Leadhead's Pencil Blog brings together the pencils, the history behind them, and a wonderful community of enthusiasts whose shared information has helped build this indispensable reference.
