So do you take them out of their original home or leave them in the box?
The struggle is real.

Right now my collection is stored in four of these 5 drawer units (20 drawers) stacked next to each other. I ripped out the dividers and lined them with self adhesive felt pads.
I like looking at my pencils a bit, so the Uchida pencils and assorted accoutrement will probably occupy their own drawer.
If you go nuts you can cram about 19 Kerry’s in a drawer. Edit: more if you add horizontal pieces.
Edit: Toolbox light Jr. ?

Thanks Gary.
Hey @drifand (or anyone 
) do you know when these were sold and distributed?

My estimate is mid 1970’s to early 1980’s, based on the packaging designs.

Congrats on the set patrick 
I’d definitely leave them in the box if I were you. The boxed set looks amazing and you can use that drawer space for other pencils.

I am using the same drawers currently with a roll of drawer liner and I love them. I got the idea from you actually so thank you!

Someone did a nasty-swap thingy.

I think this is par for the course. Locals would have first dibs at a full set of Drawing Sharps and likely discarded the rest of the perfectly fine instruments. Instead, they swap in some spare pencils and try to maximise the resale value.
