Blackwing 602 (Short) - Set of 12

LAB 05.24.23 is the eighth installment in our Labs series. With this Lab, we’re experimenting with imprinting on short “golf” pencils. These small-batch pencils are inspired by short-length pencils (roughly half the size of a regular Blackwing) traditionally used for golf score sheets. These portable pencils fit easily in your pocket/bag for travel, sketching and note-taking on the go, or your next tee time. BLACKWING LAB 05.24.23 features a gunmetal grey barrel, glossy black ferrule, silver clip, green eraser, white imprint, and our firm graphite.

Blackwing pencils were favored by award-winning creators throughout the 20th century. Despite a cult following, they were discontinued in the 1990s. Devotees began paying as much as $40 on eBay for a single pencil. In the early 2000s, we used our access to the best wood, graphite and artisan makers in the world to introduce a premium pencil line we called Palomino. The buzz surrounding Palomino led Blackwing fans to ask us to try and bring Blackwing pencils back for a new generation. In 2010, we did just that. The Blackwing Palomino is the second entry into our Blackwing Eras series.

In 1973, art found itself at the forefront of a cultural shift. The United States military had just pulled out of Vietnam after nearly two decades and midcentury optimism had given way to uncertainty. Art, even when created for mass appeal, took on a darker tone. 1973's highest-grossing movie - The Exorcist - and top-selling album - Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side of the Moon - gave us a glimpse into the cultural landscape of the time. The following year, a new wave of art - films like Chinatown and albums like Bob Marley’s Natty Dread - shined a light on a broken system.

In 1912, French engineer Georges Claude installed the world’s first neon sign above a barbershop in Paris. His vibrant, tubular lights soon adorned the storefronts of small businesses around the world and symbolized the entrepreneurial drive that formed the backbone of their communities. Today, the spirit of “Main Street” is more resilient than ever. It can be found in urban cities and rural towns, bookstores and coffee shops, boutiques, and restaurants. It’s one of the many things that make our homes feel special. And it’s worth preserving.
