Writing end eraser for a double acting mechanical pencil or erasable ink ball point pen
First Claim
1. A pencil eraser in the shape and form of a tapered cowling sleeve, affixed concentrically and statically onto the front end of the barrel of a double-acting mechanical pencil, and constituting the front end of said double-acting mechanical pencil when in a retracted state;
- said statically-affixed tapered cowling sleeve eraser being provided with internal concentric bore means for resisting the compression of a spring for spring-activated withdrawal and extension of the mechanical writing elements of said double-acting mechanical pencil through said tapered cowling sleeve while also providing support for and passage of said mechanical writing elements, thereby providing virtually instant availability for writing-end erasure of written material.

Abstract
A pencil eraser or erasable ink ball point pen eraser in the shape and form of a cowling sleeve affixed to the front end of either a double acting mechanical pencil or single acting ball point pen, wherein the writing elements of the pencil or pen may be withdrawn through spring action, making the eraser available for almost immediate application at the writing end of either instrument to erase whatever writing is to be erased, obviating the need for reversal of the ends of either writing instrument for access to an eraser at the non-writing end of these instruments.
