Guess what is really cool about the Staonal General Marking Crayons? They have the same name as the original original Crayola crayons from 1902. I only have one color so far, but I want to get them all. Cousins Edward Binney and C. Harold Smith, ie the namesakes of Binney & Smith, developed the Staonal crayon in 1902. Edwin went on later to develop Crayola crayons in 1903. It is so cool it is still around today, at least for now. (Check out the crayon collecting website for a more detailed history.)
