Episode Synopsis "Junkdrawer - The Pencil by Nevaeh"

In this episode of the junk drawer podcast, I talk about the everyday pencil. When they were first invented, some of their uses and a bit more about their history. The history of pencils is actually quite interesting. It dates back to the Roman Empire Times and has a royal background.  You will learn how the pencil originated, why the typical pencil color is yellow, and when as well as why the wood became the holder. Pencils have a history in quite a few countries including; China, Germany, and the United States. I also talk a bit about some of the main companies that produce pencils. All my information came from https://owlcation.com/humanities/Everyday-Objects-A-Brief-History-of-Things-in-Your-Junk-Drawer . The music was from youtube Audio Library; Oh My by Patrick Patrikios (https://youtu.be/d8zgdc4Ztuo ). I hope you enjoy learning about pencils on this podcast, as much as I have enjoyed researching the information for you!
