A charming vintage Mitsubishi Electric automatic pencil sharpener with a retro “Racing Car – LOTO” Formula 1 design. This ES-31 model was popular among Japanese students during the 1980s for its futuristic dashboard-like panel and smooth automatic sharpening mechanism. It features adjustable sharpening depth and an automatic stop function to prevent over-sharpening. The clear front compartment collects pencil shavings and can be easily removed for cleaning. This nostalgic Japanese-made stationery item is ideal for collectors of retro Showa-era school or office goods, or for display in vintage interiors. The item is in good overall vintage condition, showing signs of age such as scratches and sticker wear, but retains excellent display value.
