FOREIGN marked on mechanical pencils
A number of mechanical pencils I have acquired have FOREIGN marked on them. Do you know why? Was this something Great Britain required to be stamped on European made pencils imported into the UK?
Or do I have this backwards and they were something that France or Germany required to be stamped on writing instruments imported from the UK? I have seen this on many vintage mechanical pencils, mostly ones I have gotten from UK sources. Thank you, Michael Little |
