Description

Intimate and individual, pencil and paper are a personalized effect in a digital age. The pencil is our direct connection between mind and page. We tell the tale of an overpassed cultural icon with anecdotes, unexpected facts, and hand-drawn pencil-and-paper illustrations. This book features profiles of pencil crafters, anecdotes about famous writers and their favorite pencils, and essays in regards to the surprising role of pencils in world history and culture. The Pencil Best possible explores the culture, heritage, manufacture, and that means of the pencil. The common-or-garden instrument is now more relevant and romanticized than ever because it reconnects us with a simpler time. Increasingly more of us are putting down the smartphone―and picking up a pencil. This small, on a daily basis object brings us back to the easy and the tangible.
