Each year, March 30th is Pencil Day. Hymen Lipman received the first patent for attaching an eraser to the end of a pencil on this day in 1858, how easy it was to use for writing and drawing.
You know that a single wooden pencil can write 45,000 words or draw a line that is 35 miles long. A pencil can also write under water, upside down, or in zero gravity.
The majority of pencils made in the United States are painted yellow. Manufacturers painted the first pencils yellow because the color was associated with royalty and honor.
