I am sure that most of you will have seen these pencils before as they are not uncommon. I probably have at least 25 of them on hand and have sold scores of them.
They usually have one variation or another of Made in USA on the clip and I have two that have model numbers and the imprint reads:
1,) The V-3 Lucite Pencil does a big advertising job at small cost
2.) The V-3T transparent lucite pencil amazes everyone who sees it This one has no inner columns and you can actually see the mechanism
Both Jon Veley and I have one of them that says HA-WA-AN on the clip I have no idea what this means
Additional Information:
The trim is either chrome or goldtone
The columns inside the lucite take on a variety of colors
Their is usually an advertising imprint on the faces of the square lucite barrels. I have a few that have no imprints.
They use either 0.7mm or 1.1mm lead
They are 5 3/8 inches in length and the sides are 7.65mm
Here is a composite of two examples of them:

If anyone has any ideas about who made these pencils please post here.
