DescriptionA cylindrical red china marker in crimson red used to mark newspaper copy. Thicker than a standard pencil, this marker is all red with white writing in the center. The writing indicates the type of pencil, the maker, and the color. There is also cream stringy tape wrapped around the tip leaving just enough space for a blunt tipped end.On View
