Yes — I’m a full blown Sharpie® addict. Going back to my college school daze — working signage for Koenig’s at the Trumbull Mall with Bill Lampe dressing up anything we could promote to letter and cap-off with a Sharpie outline. During the last 20+ years, OCD is in the house — I carry a Sharpie in my pocket at all times with a Chapstick® and a Trim® nailclipper.
Last year we added our creativeplacement brand to the Sharpie® fine point black marker. Being a lefty, I wanted our logo to read correctly not upside down if used with the left hand. The Sanford Company who owns the Sharpie® brand made us sign a waiver because they usually print everything right-reading for righties.
