I found this in my desk at work. Not quite sure where it came from, but a few cursory google searches and I keep seeing “vintage” - so I was hoping someone could tell me a little more about this one, specifically when it was sold.
Can anyone help me date these Castell XF pencils?
Left to right:
- 9763 /5/7/9
- 9783 /5/7/9
- 9795 /7 Spring Tip
- XF7
*also - if anyone has a 9793 and/or a 9799 for sale, please DM me.

Oh boy! A worthy title to trawl through! I spent weeks going thru the entire catalog of Pencil Points / Progressive Architecture. This will be fun!!
Here’s the current link that’s open to the public:
There will be spells of no ads, no relevant ads etc. After all, most of the time advertisers are equipment suppliers etc.
