A number of Irish Banks have banded together to express their gratitude to the Irish people for bailing them out in their time of need. They have commissioned a limited edition commemorative pencil sharpener which will be offered to selected customers in gratitude for the billions of Euro they got out of us last year and the billions in years to come. It's designed to remind us of the friendly and, even intimate relationship the banks have built up with the Irish public.

Your friendly bank Manager may want to express his gratitude to you for the generous contributions you make each week to pay for his indiscretions. The model below demonstrates their gratitude, and should be appreciated by all who are lucky enough to receive one of these masterpieces.
