I just won Dubl Duck......pencils :)
Thought they would make good pencils for marking a grid when lapping my stones. Did anyone else notice these?

I didnt see them, but if I had you would have had some competition.
Someone with a dubl duck collection would love to have them and not use them.

DD had all kinds of crazy promotional items. Most were given away by salesmen as they made their rounds selling their wares.

And given that yours was the only bid, that just has to elevate the smugness factor even higher.
Congrats on your find!

If they are old enough to be lead, they would actually be minty... or so I'm told.

Usually it would be a Duck collector buying the pencils to go with his/her collection........maybe I should buy a Dubl Duck now to add to my pencil collection!

Although nostalgic to use, problem with the #2 is they just don't stay sharp very long, wearing very fast Originally Posted by hoglahoo

That is usually due to microchipping. Good thing I have a TOS on the way! Originally Posted by dirtychrome
