It’s nice to see the Palomino has reached Boing Boing’s famous directory of Wonderful Things with this post and link to Ninth Wave Design’s November post that anointed the Palomino Hb & 2B pencils as the successors to the famous Blackwing 602. It’s started a whole new range of commenting there at Ninth Wave. I welcome those of you who found their way here to Timberlines as a result.

It’s nice to see a growing group of new customers searching the Palomino out at Pencil World Creativity Store, Pencil Things and Ninth Wave Designs Online the current online sources for Palominos. I knew Boing Boing is big, but wow. We will be busy today & Monday packing up the orders. Thanks for trying us out. I hope y’all enjoy “the ride” and take a friend along with you.

If you like what you see and you’d like to see the Palomino get more established at retail please talk to your favorite art, gift, museum or small stationery shop proprietors. We have International Arrivals stocking some of our Palomino & Forest Choice items. They are set up to service these types of small independent retailers that typically want much smaller minimum order volumes.
