Any of you guys remember those power erasers? No one would ever let
me have one.

Staedtler always made the best stuff. Berol and other makes were far
inferior.



I still have my drafting erasure shield.



Those are still readily-available, because artists still use them.


My Dad bought one when I was maybe seven years old.
I thought it was totally kewl. Still in Mom's cellar,
hanging by the drawing board, I'm sure.

My drafting teacher used to always drone "use your
eraser shield".

When I attended a quarter of learning DRAFTING at University in 1965, I
bought one of those miracle erasers by Staedler, the kind that 'lifts' off
creating a long giant worm of rubbery dirty material. I still have it,
still use it.

Also have one of those machine erasers that use the American type red
rubber eraser, but it always rubbed holes in the vellum! I use it to twist
cable wiring now.

I have one, I used it on the erasable sepia paper. The white eraser didn't
do it for that. Dietzgen made the paper.
