Step back in time with this rare vintage Dixon Paperex Pencils advertising collectible, dating from the early 1900s (1900-1909). This offering includes the original product box for Dixon Paperex Pencils, proudly stating "MADE IN U.S.A. BY JOSEPH DIXON CRUCIBLE CO. JERSEY CITY, N.J.". The box features vibrant period graphics and lists the five available colors: Red, Blue, Black, Yellow, and Green. Also included is the original instruction insert, which details how to "CUT, UNRAVEL, WRITE" with these unique paper-wrapped pencils.
