Grease pencils
« on: September 14, 2005, 03:12:06 PM »
Anybody know what store I might find some yellow or white grease pencils? I looked at Office Depot, but they only seem to have black and crimson.

aaron's art mart or a real office supply, i can get 8 colors still made by sanford. I have sold office supplies for 20 years and people do not realize there is much more made than the big stores like Office Depot stock.

Any of the bowling supply houses stock them.  I get mine from Classic Products.  Get the white ones, they are a lot less messy than the yellow and they clean up with water instead of alcohol.  --  JohnP

Yeah, but wouldn't white pencil lines be hard to see on an AMF XS?

I just order a Brunswick Rampage and a bottle of Track Power Wash from Buddies. I completely forgot to add some pencils, but they already shipped the other stuff.

A little pricey to add $3 shipping for a few pencils.

Get in good with your ball driller and ask him/her to order some for you.

I totally appreciate the help mrbowlingnut. There just aren't any local office supply stores (they all have gone out of business) where I am, only Office Depot and Staples; I also tried Michael's crafts.

The only grease pencils Home Depot and Lowes had were jumbo sized ones.
