Stating the obvious and making it someone else's responsibility

A picture might be a good idea. 68.118.72.22 22:17, 2 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

So many of my classmates (and I) spent a lot of time, er, enhancing Pee Chees. Has anyone seen a display of altered Pee Chees? ---Ransom (--71.4.51.150 (talk) 00:36, 1 March 2008 (UTC))Reply

Banning

edit

I don't have the specific date (1986?), but Pee Chee finally altered the original cover design when the US School Board started banning them because kids were drawing the typical fill-in pictures (overly suggestive artwork) that was being passed down from older siblings.

For example, kids would draw hairy legs on the tennis player, turn the baton the runner is carrying into a stick of dynamite, draw spikes on the baseball bat with a grenade being thrown his way, pencil in hairy armpits on the basketball player with the other driving a knife into his chest, and apparently the worst offender of all, a Kilroy was here peeking over the mountains at the skier. -- SkewsMe.com

Pee Chees haven't been banned everywhere. A Tacoma Washington school district has them on the current school supply lists @ http://www.tacoma.k12.wa.us/schools/schoolsupplylists.asp almost every school supply list in the district requires them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.149.104.136 (talk) 16:59, 8 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Explain the name.

Was vs Is

edit

The article uses the past tense throughout, yet Mead still sells the Pee Chee folders in five different colors. http://www.mead.com/meadstore/catalog/productDetail.jsp?prodId=33022 so the article should read in the present tense. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.101.46.56 (talk) 00:57, 16 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hyphenated?

edit

The title of the article is not hyphenated, but every time the name is used in the article it is hyphenated. Which is correct? Coliiiiin (talk) 07:14, 24 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

A Smithsonian article consistently uses a hyphen, and shows a clear (if defaced) image of the logo where a subtle hyphen can be seen. 107.179.129.239 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 23:03, 16 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
