Does anyone know if the white replacement erasers in this packaging for my Pentel 11 - CPA is correct for the package? I feel like the white erasers came out much later than this packaging but the label on the eraser tube seems older than I would expect.
I’ve always thought all the old erasers were green or pink and that white came later, but the only thing informing this opinion is simply that all my old pencils had green or pink erasers
The White erasers started appearing in the US catalogs after the 1990-91 catalog (Z2-1 is green). The next one I have is the 1994, where the Z2-1 is white, and the Z3-1 (size of current Z2-1N) is still green.
We all wish that things could be exactly as the catalogs said it was… but in reality, new models of pencils might get shipped in older boxes. Or in this case, newer erasers were packed in still available stocks of containers with older stickers.
