Brand: Ruwe Pencil Co.
Made in: USA
Always fun to find a new Ruwe pencil. This company was around when I first started collecting pencils in 7th grade. This particular pencil has a slightly larger diameter and the lead core is also thicker. The name kind of throws me off to what the purpose of this pencil might be. It's not a primary pencil, it's not an art pencil, perhaps more for general purpose use. Want one?

Ruwe Pencil Co. was a small American manufacturer that produced and sold pencils from its headquarters in Greenwich, Connecticut. (See the neat old photo postcard below.) In 1988, Florida-based Dixon Ticonderoga Co. purchase Ruwe for $1 million, which was roughly the amount of its annual sales at the time according to newspapers reporting on the deal. That same year Dixon also purchased Shelbyville, Tennessee-based National Pen & Pencil Co. for $6 million.
