Brand: Eagle Pencil Co.
Made in: USA
The origins of this pencil dates back to the early 1900's and underwent a significant name change after the bombing of Pearl Harbor ... Mikado to Mirado. NOTE: the single model is available for purchase here. Honestly it's just a variation to me and who knows it could be a rare one?? The second gallery picture is three Canadian made Mirados.
