Crayola does not typically sell graphite pencils. When I saw this 65 Piece Crayola Pencils Design and Sketch set with the graphite pencils, I knew I had to have it. There are 25 colored pencils and 21 unique pencils. The set includes some instructions on how to draw and blank pages. I would love to use these pencils, but I want to keep them in mint condition, ah the problems of a collector. We will see which side wins out.

The one thing I do not like about this set is the packaging, the cool packaging is plastic and can not be put back on once the set has been opened, bad news for a collector. The case seems like nice enough, why can't they adhere a sticker to the front and the back with the packaging information and tape the tabs to make sure people do not get in it, or enclose the set in clear plastic. I opened it, but I have not figured out yet how I am going to keep the plastic with the set, either let it be loose or glue it on somehow which I wish had been done in the first place.
As a bonus I have used the pencil sharpener and love it. It sharpens pencils very nicely.
