Correct Abner Ravenwood Journal PENCIL

Post by TomVDJ »

In my local craftsstore I noticed an old box of pencils that's probably been there for ages, but these seem to be perfect pencils for an Abner Ravenwood Journal: they are yellow / orange, no marks on them, with a white eraser on top. Just like the one seen in the movie:

Too bad... I passed the crafts store today and the box has been sold :( .

I the meanwhile someone pointed out these pencils to me: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07G2Q28PG/re ... B07G2Q28PG" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Did someone order these already and know if they have any markings / lettering on them? If not, I think this would be the perfect pencil... Too bad these don't ship to Belgium, though... If someone picks up a box and decides to sell a few, let me know!

Here's a picture from the Amazon listing of the pencil in question. Looks the part to me.

I also moved this topic and made a few edits to clean it up to be more of a general interest thread.

These pencils have black markings contrary to the description...but if you age the pencil you can make it work.

Went ahead and ordered the pencils from Amazon.

Fresh out of the box.

After about a minute of work with a knife.

I have found these very cheap and carry two very small letters:

Based on this screen-cap the pencil eraser is white not pink.

I attended a work lunch and these pencils were on the table. I had to fight the urge to not grab all of them.
