Pencil Recall by Papel Freelance NEWS from CPSC U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Office of Information and Public Affairs Washington, DC 20207 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Ken Giles May 22, 1997 (301) 504-7052 Release # 97-129 CPSC, Papel Freelance Inc. Announce Recall WASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Papel Freelance Inc. of Cranbury, N.J., is recalling about 28,000 pencils that have miniature pacifiers where erasers are normally found. These miniature pacifiers detach very easily from the pencils, presenting a choking hazard to young children. CPSC and Papel Freelance Inc. are not aware of any injuries involving these pencils. This recall is being conducted to prevent the possibility of injury. The wooden pencils, measuring 7 inches long, are available in pink and blue. The words "PAPEL/FREELANCE Taiwan" are printed on the side of the pencils. The pencils have miniature pacifiers where erasers are normally found. The pacifiers, measuring about 1.5 inches wide, are mostly cream in color. Various retail stores nationwide, including Winn Dixie and Hallmark, sold the pencils from September 1996 through April 1997 for about $2. Consumers should take these pencils away from young children immediately and return them to the store where purchased for a full refund. For more information about this recall, consumers should call Papel Freelance Inc. at (800) 634-8384. CPSC learned of this problem from the State of Connecticut's Department of Consumer Protection.
