RE-VIEW: The Christmas Tree Train (Redux)
Lily and Lou
This is Klondike Kat: a character from the 1960s that I remember watching as a segment from the Underdog cartoon that aired on Nickelodeon.
Klondike is a wildcat who serves as a mountie in the Royal British-Canadian Mounted Police.

Klondike's antagonist is a criminal mouse named Savoir Faire ...and from that one can deduce 'Klondike Kat' was a Tom-and-Jerry type show (and one would be correct).

I didn't care much for the show, but whatever---the shorts lated only several minutes each.. ^^

Pencil...

The featured pencil is an official 'Government of Canada' pencil, circa 1960s.

There exists a great variety of these pencils, albeit the featured one is my favorite, with its warning that 'Misuse [of the pencil] is Abuse'.

Luckily, I didn't use this pencil at all: I drew Klondike with a 'Zephyr' by Wallace Pencil Co., and delineated it via an unbranded 'Par-Value' pencil.

Someone out there has a collection of these pencils. To learn more about them, click here: https://pencilseh.weebly.com/government-of-canada-penci...

I have a fair few myself; these are they (there are some repeats): https://sta.sh/0k3dq3zri99

The 1917 isn't upside-down, it's a left-handed pencil (yes, those exist).

The topmost red pencil has writing in both English and (what I presume to be) French.

It's almost like a reverse Tom & Jerry. Cat's gotta be the good guy somewhere. :3

Oh it takes time to say 'Savoir Faire and Klondike Kat,'
But there's a show that I dislike and don't you know,
Its name just so happens to be called all of that?

Whenever it comes onscreen my heart is filled with hate,
But by the time you've read the titles, it's the end of the show,
The next thing's on, can't turn away... and it is far too late!

That's a very interesting story about those pencils. Isn't it interesting that pencils are one of the few things that have not changed in design for more than a hundred years?

Thx!

Yes, pencils are very simple tools; not much to improve upon. :3

Many contemporary pencils are different in ways not readily noticeable, such as the materials used to make them. Staedtler's 'Wopex' pencils are an example, as the pencil barrels are made from sawdust and plastic-based bonding agents rather than wood (granted, similar pencils were made in the 1970's, such as the Epcon' pencil, but the 'Wopex' is a marked improvement over those).
