Brand: Wallace Pencil Co.
Made in: USA
I've myself have only seen this same Motif model with the long ferrule......imagine there is a standard ferrule. Update, I have now laid eyes on a round Motif model with a plastic ferrule and a round one with a standard ferrule. I still have yet to see a standard hex Motif with a standard ferrule....have you?
Founded in 1915, St. Louis-based Wallace Pencil Company was a prolific producer of pencils before being acquired by Dixon in the 1980s. According to the Smithsonian, "By 1979 it sold 120 million pencils per year. Before the 1950s, the firm packaged some of these pencils, such as its Motif line, in metal tins."
