About Us:
Sanford turned its focus to the emerging marker business and introduced the Sharpie marker. The Sharpie Fine Point black marker became the first pen-style permanent marker. It wrote on surface from glass, wood and stone, to plastic, metal and, of course, paper. A new style tip is introduced in four colors, the Sharpie Extra Fine Point marker. Autograph seekers and celebrities used Sharpie markers on everything from posters and trading cards to balls and jerseys. Today, Sharpie stands for far more than just markers. Made to write on, stand out on, and stay on practically any surface, it’s The Permanent Marker born for unique, unruly, courageous, outrageous self-expression that never, ever fades from glory.
