Philippines
I have a little collection of vintage pencils from colleges and universities in the Philippines. Maybe you have never seen such a thing…
Well, now you have.
I also have several brand-name types made there —
The Eberhard Faber ones have a “MADE IN PHIL.” imprint. The Master’s has an MPC logo; presumably this stands for Master Pencil Co.
Those college and university pencils are just fantastic. What a wonderful little group.

I thought they were special too. I found them mixed in with a large lot of ad pencils. I wonder how they all got there in the first place. They appear to be from at least three different manufacturers, including Staedtler.

Impressive! Great grouping for a collection….colleges. I like the “My Dependable Amigo” very much. Thanks for sharing.

It’s interesting how many of those university pencils are left-hand oriented!

Where did you come across these? Flea market or the like?
