This secret pencil with map and compass from World War II was created exclusively for the Keswick Pencil Museum.
In 1942, Charles Fraser Smith, who worked for MI9, arrived at the Cumberland Pencil Factory with an enigma for management to solve.
He had the idea of creating a secret pencil containing a map and compass. These pencils were issued to Lancaster bomber pilots during World War II and were manufactured in secret, under the Official Secrets Act, in Keswick between 1939 and 1945.
