    No longer made in USA or PMA Certified

    Disappointed to find that the pack of a dozen EarthWrite pencils received today do not have the PMA non-toxic certification seal on them, and were made in Mexico, not the USA.

        Pros

          Cons

          • Difficult To Sharpen
          • Lead breaks easily

          Best Uses

            Comments about Paper Mate� EarthWrite� Pencil, #2, Dozen:

            These pencils have changed since the last time I ordered them. The outide is GREEN, not yellow, so my coworkers avoid using them since they think the lead will be green in color. The lead breaks easily, especially when sharpening, so by the time it is sharpened there is only half a pencil left. This is not very economical and certainly not good for the planet. I think I will avoid buying these for a while.

                • Q:

                  Could you tell me if the erasers on this pencil are latex free? The description does not say they are; but on one of the other descriptions it does. We have to be very careful and have NO LATEX products in our building because of student allergy. Thank you!
