More Sterling Plastic Items

May and June of this year I posted most of my Sterling Plastic Company Collection. Any low cost, made in the USA school or office supply item was made by Sterling Plastic. Rulers, Protractors, pencil boxes, slide rules and pencil sharpeners were made by Sterling Plastic. I did not post the plastic storage boxes. Here we have four great examples. Back left is the letter file small storage box model #274. To the right is the large letter file storage box, I believe the model is a #275. Up front are two check files model #273. These all work and are from the 70s or early 80s. If you are looking for these try and find ones with the red,white and blue labels still attached. Rulers are also sterling Plastic.

Scripto T060 Stick Pen

Here we have an item for all you Scripto Pen collectors. I just picked up two dozen non-working Scripto Med point Stick Pens made in Atlanta Georgia. I did not have one in my collection. All you have to do is send me an E-mail at moose@hot.rr.com and I will send you one. I guess I should point out again that they do not work and I am not aware of many Scripto Pen collectors. I only have two dozen.

BIC 1995 Jewel Collection

Here is a set I have been hearing about for some time. The BIC 1995 Limited Edition Jewel Collection from France. I have always like BIC pens made overseas. They just seem to make a larger variety of models and colors. This limited edition set comes in a cardboard carrying case and includes some pens sold in the US but made in clear plastic. There is a 4 way and a 2 way multi pen and the BIC Metal included. None of these pens work but I do have some refills for a few of them.

Tilt Tip Pens

Here we have two Tilt Tip pens. The one on the left is a Scripto Tilt Tip from the late 50s and early 60s and on the right you have the discontinued Papermate Pendulum. The scripto does not write but the papermate does. This is a nice pen. The black tip that hold the point turns completely around. Not a fine point but is fun to write with. I just do not know about papermate. They make a pen that is fun to write with and then its gone. Most reviews of this pen gave it high marks. I liked Papermate better when it was in its prime during the 50s and 60s.

Killeen and Ft Hood Texas

This past week has been nothing short of a disaster here in Killeen. On Sunday 1 November we had a fire at our CenTex Humane Society that killed 115 animals. I am the former President of the organization. Then on Thursday the 5th Of November we had some nut shoot down 13 soldiers and civilians on Ft Hood in the worst mass killing on a military base ever. As you know I am a retired military. Don't forget Veterans Day on Wednesday.

Pentel 25th Aniversity Sterling Silver Roller Ball

Here we have the newest pentel pen in my collection. On the left is the Sterling Silver 25th Anniversary Roller Ball. This new pen was commissioned and handed out by the President of Pentel back in 1990 to commemorate 25 years of US Pentel. This one has a serial number of 0610. I would guess that there were 1000 pens made. This is a outstanding roller pen and is clearly the top roller in my collection. This pen has a special refill but can be replaced with the refill for the R-4 which is the next pen. This is one of four R-4s, black, red, green and blue. They use refill number #MG8 . The next pen is the 25th Anniversary Pentel Lancelot which I posted back on 5 October. Last pen on the right is the Pentel Excalibur that I bought back in 1977 at Harrod's of London.

Happy Halloween
