Claimed by many to be the best writing utensil in the world, Blackwing pencils are famous for the quality of graphite, iconic shape, replaceable eraser, and the men and women whose works they\u2019ve inspired throughout the years.\u00a0The list of known users includes John Steinbeck, Stephen Sondheim, Leonard Bernstein and Chuck Jones (who proudly used Blackwings to create Bugs Bunny and countless other Looney Tunes characters).<\/p>\n
Volume 292 is a tribute to Keith Haring, one of the most renowned of the young artists, filmmakers, and performers whose work was in conversation with urban street culture of the 1980s.
\nWhen he opened his Pop Shop at 292 Lafayette Street, he thought of it as a physical extension of his work, a place where everyone was welcome to experience his art. He believed in using commercial projects like the Pop Shop to reach people who would otherwise never come in contact with his message, a legacy that lives on today in this box of pencils.
\nEach pencil features Haring’s dancing figures and balanced graphite.<\/p>\n
Launched in the 1930s, discontinued in 1998, the Blackwing Pencil is now making a comeback.
