Blackwing Palomino Blue - Set of 12

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 64 is a tribute to comic books and the innovative minds that bring them to life. During the Golden Age of comic books, many comic producers used a four color printing process to color the images in their books. This process utilized a combination of overlapping dots, lines, and precise angles to give comics their unique look. These limited-edition Blackwing Volume 64 Point Guards pay homage to the 4-color CMYK printing process. Each set comes with four Point Guards inspired by the four key CMYK colors: Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Gloss Black.
