Eberhard Faber "school" And "noblot" Pens

[glaur1]

Hello. I'm new to this forum and have searched prior posts but didn't find anything relating to my interest. When I was in elementary and junior high school, all of my teachers used Eberhard Faber pens, blue and red. I loved them and would try to poach them whenever I could. The ones I really liked had "School" in cursive written toward the top. They were yellow wooden pens with an inch long (or so) blue or red plastic part at the end, and the point of the pen was longer than most pens--maybe a good 1/4 inch or more. They had white erasers encased in either a gold or almost bronze colored metal piece.

 

The "Noblot" version I believe was plastic versus wood. They came in red, blue, or black, and instead of the inch long plastic part at the end, they had a smaller color part (red, blue, or black) which had a zig-zag pattern.

 

Does anyone know what I'm talking about? And if so, does anyone know where I might find them, particularly the "school" ones? I'd love to have a box or two for old-times sake.

 

Thanks,

Greg

Hello Greg,

 

Well, I hope you see this. It has been almost a year since you posted on the Noblot pens.

 

I found your post by searching for info on the Eberhard faber Nobot ball point models. One just turned up in a lot of pens and pencils I just bought. Mine is an all metal shiny chrome one with NOBLOT on the clip and Eberhard Faber USAat the bottom of the upper section.

 

Do you have any more info on them?

 

 

 

Thanks,

Hi Michael,

 

In making a post about a Parker 51, I reviewed this earlier post and recognized your "handle." I just bought an EF pen "Bismarck Tribune Co." from you on Ebay. It's great. I got it writing again. Thanks, and please think of me if you get any more "Noblot" or "School" EF pens!

 

Thanks for the great transaction.

Greg

So after a couple of years, I finally have secured some Eberhard Faber Noblot pens! I can't get the 2435s to write, but I did get the 2235 "Bismarck Tribune" to write. I have fond memories of these pens from my elementary and high school days.

 

As noted above, if anyone knows of sources for purchasing more of these, particularly in red, blue, or black, I'd be interested.

 

Thanks!

Greg
