Anyone have any older Japanese mechanical pencils with Japanese car company corporate branding? Toyota / Honda / Acura / Lexus / Nissan / Datsun / Mazda / Suzuki / Isuzu / Subaru, Even the parts companies like Denso, Aisin or Sumitomo?
I’m mainly interested in higher end drafting-style models from the 70’s through to the early 2000’s.
Even if you’re not thinking of selling, I’m just generally curious to see what people have found in this vein. Post some pictures!! I don’t have much money to spend anywho
And no, the entire Mitsubishi / Uni lineup doesn’t count
I am not exactly sure of when these were available, but they are in the Pentel of America 1985 catalog, but not the 1984 or 1990 (prior and next catalogs I have).
I managed to find an AUTOZAM cheapie sharp. That’s the Mazda offshoot that made the crazy small AZ1 sports car. @BicCristal you should check out Mercari listings for steel BOXY pencils with the HONDA CITY branding… There are also Nissan Be-1 pencils and pens out there. I think @Hammer_Jackson also scored some nice Mazda/enfini steel sharps a while back.
