SOLD MLF fundraiser item for auction

[pamtnman]

This neat pencil should appeal to the three guys on this site who remember what Sears was. I found this in a bunch of old stuff in a barn and it is being auctioned off here as a fundraiser for this website, the Muzzleloading Forum. Auction closes tomorrow Friday at noon EST. Last high bidder at noon tomorrow wins this collectible pencil. Make your payment to the Muzzleloading Forum. Include with your winning auction bid $2.50 USPS [edited per request] shipping, unless you live in central Pennsylvania and can meet me or I can drop it off at your home or business.
C’mon men, show support for this great site we all love, toss a few quarters in the jar here.
Opening bid is $1.00, bidding increments of one cent.

You could wrap it in computer paper, put it in a letter sized envelope, and put two bucks worth of stamps on it.

That pencil doesn't weigh anything and it would sail right through the USPS system.

Just an idea.

Shoot, I'll send you a $10.00 bill for it! Just like my dad used to use!

Remember that all proceeds from this go to The Muzzleloading Forum here, not to me.

I've been meaning to contribute for a while now!!

You need a vintage Craftsman Sears shop pencil from 1963 to go with all that shiny stuff ya got there. I used it to draw a straight line on a board i was cutting the other day. Felt pretty neat.

We have a very generous bid here of Ten Dollars, thank you very much. I think you will end up with it tomorrow, this is a pretty cheap crowd.

"General merchandise" doesn't mean this is a flea market. Items must relate to muzzleloaders or the muzzleloader era.

I believe gun builders use pencils to lay out their cutting and inletting lines. If this pencil bothers you, feel free to not participate in its auction. Or donate your own MLF fundraising item, time, and shipping contribution.

[Packrat]

Just a mention, I have never won a thing, until I got drafted, and I was already in the USMC and could not even collect on that, but my Drill Instructor had a lot of fun with my draft notice

Thank you for stepping up and making sure everyone understands The Muzzleloading Forum rules of the road.

I'm certain every member here appreciates it.
