Indelible pencil reply

Thank you all for your responses,
Incidently I did google the item before posting but none of our usual
suppliers were listed and my experience with ordering indelible pencils
from the usual P&O suppliers catalogues has resulted in pencils that
have poor transferring properties. They are not the Sanford #705 noblot
ink pencil.
These are the type I have used forever when I started at HSC in Toronto.
They release ink generously when dipped in water unlike some of the
other types I tried from PEL and Fillauer. I saw the sites many of you
referenced on Google as well but our Hospital won't deal with companies
ordering from this method. They want to buy from known confirmed
vendors, preferrably vendors that have already estblished accounts with
the Hospital. Hence the reason why I posted on the list serve. Some of
the pencils I ordered from these companies state indelible in their
catalogue but when you get them they work very similar to a lead based
pencil.



Below is a summary.

Check with art supply stores, they are usually best.

Dear David I went on line and there must be at least 100 distributors of
the sanford pencil. Try the internet. Good luck
