    Gotta think I found this pen sometime back in the 1970's (-ish) when I was a student myself...also would bet (without specific recollection) that my teachers (and/or Mom) probably wouldn't actually let me *use* it to do my math assignments...?? <lol>

    It is 7" long, and the red 'outer sleeve' between the black ends rotates freely around its barrel. There are 21 little holes in a row on the sleeve, when it is turned it reveals the number 1-12 in its first (unnumbered) hole, then the corresponding 'times [1-20]' number in each successive hole down the row.

    It is 7" long, on one end there is most of a remaining mark that seems to read "UNIVERSAL", something else now illegible beside that.

      Even though I clicked Love It.....it got me detention for using one. My math teacher didn't have a sense of humor. Worst of it is my dad had a worse sense of humor.

      MORE THANKS to Vynil33rpm, Watchsearcher, & fhrjr2 for your fun comments and <loves> -- fhrjr2, in my case it was probably Mom (a former math teacher herself) who made sure I never got a chance to 'use it' as intended...? <lol>
