I remember a sense of joy and wonder walking into the big office supply store with my mom when I was a kid. There were so many cool things: strange and exciting writing implements, and elegant papers, envelopes and so on (red Swingline anyone?). One item for which the variety always seemed especially vast and interesting was the eraser. So it's no surprise that, like so many other things, there are people who collect erasers and are fonts of knowledge for their uses and histories.

Drilling down a bit, I was thrilled to find a Flickr group for eraser collectors, too!
