   Now these are tiny! – Can you identify the technique which has been employed to create the irregular pattern on the lid?

     I really don’t know, and to be honest I don’t know quite what to make of the lid design. The raised portions almost seem like paper that was moistened then adhered to the top.

       Thank you for that detail. It looks unusual and reminds me of the cover of an address book I saw recently.

     Yes, they are very small, and it makes me wonder how popular this size was. I still wonder what people would ordinarily use them for, too. So many manufacturers made pocket pencils—and for decades—that they couldn’t just be a novelty.
