Pointers on Pencils
The Eagle Pencil Company started out as a pencil shop- and a factory in Yonkers- in 1856 (in time, a factory at 724 East 14th Street in New York was added). In 1969, the company became Berol Corporation. Empire Pencil Corporation, based in Tennessee, bought them out in 1986. In turn, they were acquired by Sanford/Newell Brands in 1995. The "Berol" brand name still exists. but its products are mostly produced in other countries. The Eagle factory disappeared a long time ago.
