America's #1 pencil! First introduced in 1913,
the Joseph Dixon Crucible Company wanted a name that represented "a
fine American name for a fine American pencil." They named the
pencil Ticonderoga after Fort Ticonderoga, a military post
in New York.
With production of nearly a half a billion pencils a year, the
Ticonderoga has become the #1, most recognized, and revered pencil
throughout America and the world. Try one of our quality Ticonderoga
