I found a lovely mechanical pencil that had lain used for over thirty years, but was uncertain of the lead size. I read on a pen-related website that general purpose pencils made in the 70’s and 80’s normally used a 0.9mm lead, so took a chance on these. They fit perfectly and the softness of the B grade makes them ideal for newsprint crosswords. Very pleased.
