The lead is buttery and very black but smudging isn't overt.

These old pencils actually have just a clear laquer and are darker in color since they used Eastern Red Cedar. <BR/><BR/>Gary - Sorry, not clear on your question about our plastic 6 pack. We can deal with this via email at crs@calcedar.com if you like.<BR/><BR/>J - Thanks for the email inquiry. Should have your answers Tuesday and those Palominos on they're way once you finalize an order. Liked seeing your sketches and am looking forward to what you can do with the Palominos.WoodChuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17463614041405036323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15148858.post-1140471349341310742006-02-20T13:35:00.000-08:002006-02-20T13:35:00.000-08:00I'm lookign forward to getting my hands on some of...I'm lookign forward to getting my hands on some of these.Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11589152423016392480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15148858.post-1140454394120738172006-02-20T08:53:00.000-08:002006-02-20T08:53:00.000-08:00I've ordered twice; terrific service.

(picked up a flea market some years ago).<BR/>They are quite interesting. They are round, with a textured finish, almost like a 'grain d'orge' pattern, and the ferrule has this pattern in the middle, instead of a band of color.<BR/>Was the Diagraph a special use pencil? or just a variety in the family of Eagle Pencils. There is no special wording on the sleeve (unlike, for example, the reporter pencils, double ended and thinner, that are described on the box as being good for reporters...)<BR/>hmmm, the Diagraphs that I have are a muted orange, that might be age. Anyhow, they aren't yellow - They might look quite nice in the Palomino/Golden Bear orange....<BR/>(quick google shows that you already mentioned the Diagraph back in august of 2005. )Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15148858.post-1140117924586300932006-02-16T11:25:00.000-08:002006-02-16T11:25:00.000-08:00Steve -Thanks for the positive feedback.The day I ...Steve -<BR/>Thanks for the positive feedback.<BR/><BR/>The day I realized Sanford had converted the Eagle brand to plastic casing over wood cased it was like taking a dagger through the heart. Don't think that I haven't thought about licensing the Eagle brand rights before. Although I don't know the yellow pencil is the way to go since they still keep the Mirado name. It would have to be something really unique and special.WoodChuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17463614041405036323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15148858.post-1140115190477847742006-02-16T10:39:00.000-08:002006-02-16T10:39:00.000-08:00I just recieved the KUM sharpeners, great deal, qu...I just recieved the KUM sharpeners, great deal, quick shipping (sorry if it sounds like an e-auction feedback) all very nice. I'm tempted by the gold plated sharpeners on pencilthings.<BR/>They'd make some great gifts. <BR/>Also, I have a question. Eagle was such a great pencil brandname, but last I saw it it was on some extruded plastic 'recycled" pencils.<BR/>I'm guessing Sanford still owns the trademark? It would be fun if the California Republic could get the Trademark, and make a Palomino quality Eagle, in classic yellow, with eraser. Maybe only pencil geeks would get it. Oh well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15148858.post-1139921466074413982006-02-14T04:51:00.000-08:002006-02-14T04:51:00.000-08:00Me, three!
