AC266: Eversharp Red Top Leads (1.1mm), Standard Black.

Date: c1930s

Size: N/A

A full tin of fourteen Eversharp red Top leads.   These are the very unusual square cross-section leads specially made for the eversharp 4-Square pencil, but useable in other pencils that accept 1.1mm leads.  Each of the rectangular black painted metal containers has a gold end and a red lid.  It is imprinted on one side "Eversharp Red Top Leads" and on the opposite side "The Wahl Co. / Chicago Ill. / Made in USA".  A very unusual find, and indispensable for using in your 4-square pencil!

I currently have one pack of these leads.
