Does anyone remember indelible pencils?
Just about. Frequently a dark violet colour.
They've disappeared, so I can't find out WTH they were *for*.
Laundry markers. You can still get them, but they're rare.
A similar thing is a Chinagraph pencil, which is still pretty common.
They're very similar to use (they need a lick before they'll write
straight off on a low-friction surface). Not indelible though.
