Graphite Pencils and Pens, I Use and Love!

 The Winter and Graphite Pencils and Pens  

This is the best time of the year to reacquaint yourself with your supply of Graphite Pencils and Pens.    It is time to begin the renewal of Life.    The activity outside has curtailed and there is more time to focus on the inside of ones dwellings.
We all need to stop, turn around and assess Our Possessions and decide which Possessions are the ones We use the most and which ones we tend to hang onto for another day.

This is where I will begin a year long blog of the Graphite Pencils I use and their Grades.   I have chosen to discuss, a long time favorite and the New favorite.
The Blackwing 602 and The Palomino Blackwing from California Cedar Products Company California Cedar Products Company.   I have been fortunate to find a few Blackwing 602 from a wonderful seller.   Make no mistake the Blackwing's I am have been lucky enough to purchase in order to make the first blog are not considered "Collectible".    To Me, however, they are jewels of wood coated in that sofe gray black and the golden ferrule with the beautiful Pink rectangular eraser that I first touched as a very small child.    There is just no getting over how I really loved and cherished that pencil.   This pencils may were more expensive  a #2 Yellow pencil.   I remember how people that it was horrible of my Father to let me have them.   I knew a good pencil.
Now, I am in love all over again with the Palomino Blackwing.
