Because Life's too short to carry an ugly pen (pencil too)!

If you're looking for a mechanical pencil with a classic look, the Retro 51 Tornado is for you. Its 1.15 mm lead size allows you to write with bold letters, and the included eraser is big enough to quickly fix any mistake. True to its vintage inspiration, this pencil features a twist lead extension mechanism instead of using a push button. To extend the lead, simply twist the knurled piece below the eraser—no clicking necessary!

The Tornado line of writing instruments are renowned in the world of fine writing for their high-quality stylish features and amazing writing experience at an affordable price.

One of the most famous intellectuals of his time, Retro 51 has designed a pen to commemorate Frederick Douglass. Author, reformer and American abolitionist, his legacy lives on through his works and now in this collectable rollerball pen.

This Retro 51 rollerball pen has a tactile, engraved texture complemented with antique copper trim. Retro 51 put Douglass' portrait on the top disc finial and package tube art.  "His life’s work still serves as an inspiration to those who seek equality and a more just society." - History.com

As Retro 51 puts it, 'Life is too short to carry an ugly pen'. And we agree. Their bright colours and cool designs have more than a hint of nostalgia about them, and all their pens are made with good old-fashioned values in mind. Includes Extra Lead and Erasers and a Graphic Tube Packaging
