The first kind of pencil was a bunch of graphite sticks held together by string. Then someone decided it would be better to push the graphite into the inside of a hollow wooden stick.
Joseph Rechendorfer was the first person to think of putting a piece of rubber onto the top of a pencil, which makes it real easy to rub out mistakes.
Did you know that the average lead pencil can draw a line that is almost 35 miles long, or you can write almost 50,000 words in English with just one pencil? Amazing fact! Now imagine an eraser that could match it!!!
