Putting an ask out for a friend. She's hoping someone might have some of these Mars Lumograph 100 EE pencils tucked away somewhere that they don't want. They're unavailable now and there's nothing quite like them out there. If you have any let me know and I'll put you in contact.

Please boost!

@welshpixie Quite a while ago I was trying out every dark pencil I could find to use for life drawing. I couldn’t find any of the EE pencils in my remaining collection, but I’d suggest trying the Conté Pierre Noire pencils in an HB - they’re fairly hard, very black, fine grained, not scratchy.

@welshpixie Good luck. The 100 EE seems to have been discontinued around 2007.

I read this blog post that someone found them on the Staedtler Thailand website back in 2007, but they are long gone now.  It also suggested that the 8B was about the closest replacement.

@welshpixie Amazon Germany has them but I assume 200€ for 12 is a ridiculous price? (I would not think a pencil should cost more than one euro but I don't know if they are somehow special)

@splitbrain yeah, these pencils are so rare now that there are a lot of amazon scams around them too XD
@welshpixie what is it about the EE edition that's special? The Mars lumograph series seem to be nothing out of the ordinary.

Why am I looking for these pencils? (Staedtler EE) Thank you to those who have helped me to try to find some. I’m afraid no regular B pencil will do for me. These are black…and strange. Like a cross...

@welshpixie

Not what is requested:

Is the lumograph a grease pencil / chinagraph pencil / china marking pencil / peel off crayon?
Other brands/online stores have these available.
