THE KB COLLECTION OF PENCILS - ANTIQUE MECHANICAL PENCILS

Sold

The most comprehensive & preeminent collection of Antique Mechanical Pencils in the World, featuring hundreds of pencils in Silver,Gold, Metal & Enamels from 1822 - 1940. The collection covers almost all of the notable designs of the time, from across the world, and incorporating the most esteemed designers and manufacturers. These include Sampson Mordan, Tiffany & Cartier.

This collection has been shown in its complete form in public only a number of times, and is a labour of love over many years.

A limited edition Book was published, not only about my collection of pencils, but explaining in depth the history of the mechanical pencil during a period of over one hundred years from 1822 to 1940.

Many discussions with specialist collectors that led me on to the idea of presenting this unique collection to the public and particularly to enthusiasts.

The collection shows a wide range and diversity of types from pistols, rifles, pipes, cigars, oars, boats, tennis rackets and golf clubs.
