Nudie Pencils

WARNING - PG Rated Post.

Children please ask your parents before reading any more.

This is, and always will be, a “G”- family rated blog, but from time to time standards slip and a little bit of “PG” rated stuff sneaks through. This is one of those times.



Here we have some late 1960’s mechanical pencils. The handsome man and beautiful young lady are posing in their bathing suits, but if you hold the pencil up the other way……well I think you can guess what happens to their bathing suits! Mechanical pencil pornography! (Wonder how many hits that search phrase will generate over the next few months?) But it’s not equal opportunity smut – there is only one man on the “man” pencil, whereas there are two different ladies on the other pencil. Three for the price of two?

The lady who sold me these claimed to know they were over 35 years old. Personally I would have guessed them as late 60’s to mid 70’s, so it seems to fit together. They are screw mechanisms, you turn the metal tip section around to advance or retract the lead. Although these are in pretty good condition, like many cheaper plastic pencils from that era they seem to be a bit warped. I suppose that’s not entirely inappropriate.
