Ah, Yes. The Pencil Sharpener
Remember that loud and obnoxious grinding noise of the pencil sharpener? For some reason, these were mounted on a table or wall, and students would walk over and sharpen their pencils this way. It is rather strange since every student could easily use a small plastic sharpener at their desk, but this was the way it was done. Eventually, the device would be full of shavings that would spill everywhere. The pencil has become less important as computers and tablets have taken over, but we’ll always remember the good ole days.
