“Stag Slencil.” The design patent, number 119,263, was issued on March 5, 1940: Set of four pencils. Square body as not to roll if traveling on a train. Invented by Carl Harris, inventor of the Slencil, supposedly came upon the idea when he was riding on a train, and his pencil kept rolling off the table. What may seem today as a single idea – a flat pencil that won't roll – proved to be fodder for Harris to invent and patent dozens of improvements, attachments and accessories over a period of decades.

Four plastic drink stirrers.

Offered as a set.

USPS padded retailer flat rate shipping quoted.
