The Twist is in the Plot, Not Just the Pencil

Back on July 13, we were discussing an interesting cable-twist pencil made by the J.E. Mergott Co. That got the attention of Dan Linn, a frequent contributor of information here (most recently with regard to the "Beats All" pencils), who emailed me some pictures of a nearly identical pencil.
I complimented him on the find and asked if he was keeping this one to himself – instead of a reply, I received a package. Here’s Dan’s pencil, at bottom, next to the Mergott from the article a few days ago . . .
