I have a small battery operated pencil eraser with small refill erasers, purchased at a Blueprint copy store in Athens, GA. However, Amazon, Smile (GNSI gets a donation here) has a few small electric erasers with refills. I had one of the larger ones as well.  Portability was important when attending art classes and for use in the field. Hope the ones at Amazon might work for you.

How! When!!??

I only just discovered that Faber Castell No 73 electric machine white pencil eraser 7” refill strips (75214) are  not available anywhere, and I’m guessing have been discontinued by the manufacturer. I see partly-filled boxes for sale on eBay for $50! The last time I bought a box  in the late 90’s was around $7. I had a few other half-boxes, but I’m running low… aiiiieeeeee!!!!!!!   :-(

This has not made my day any better. First Kodachrome, then Pelikan Graphic White, and now this…
