  • treeseed commented on the word magic marker

    A trademark of the BIC Corporation as well as a genericized term (in the United States) for a felt tip marker with a wide tip as opposed to a fine tip. Originally, (in 1958) available in red or black, now available in many colors of ink, washable and permanent.

    Marker pen, or marker, is a term used to refer to various kinds of pens which have their own ink-source and usually a tip made of a porous material, including felt or nylon. When the tip is made of felt it can be called a felt-tipped pen.
