Staedtler Mars 770/Lumograph Kit



Thank you @Pencilking for showing me this listing.
I got this kit from eBay over the weekend. Luckily the seller didn’t know what he had.
He got it from a garage sale earlier that day from the original owner/purchaser of the set.

Now it’s all mine!

Old lefty-optimized Staedlers are the best!

Set is very cool…the 1021, to me, is the real gem…(not blue!)
Nice snag

As you know, I’ve wanted one…
I was most surprised by the 770 though, I couldn’t believe there was a 0.9!

That burgundy Staedtler with the moon is terrific — and it reminds me of the Ork factions in Warhammer 40000 — but even the tiny sharpener is super-minimal and super-cute.

This is an amazing find! The swivelling pencil attachment even has the adaptor for different inking pens: spectacular. Congrats @DarkwingDuck ! :slight_smile:

The trio of MARS-770 is just perfect! So interesting to see the change up in physical styling from before Staedtler standardized on their ‘Micrograph’ look.
