Brand: Ruwe Pencil Co.
Made in: USA
Three variations of the Heath. The top darker yellow is an alternate color of yellow and the bottom Heath Model was taken out of a 1/2 Gross box of them back in about 1982 when I was in middle school....the ferrule appears to have slipped through the machine that gives it those grooves.
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.
