Stylus reminded me of a bone-pen, wasnt there such pen?

The nib of it is made of ivory or the bone of the animals.
The nib of those pens were thinner than stylus probably because the touch was softer than the iron nib and it would not damage the stencil paper.

Until very recently, checks and receipts were written by placing carbonic paper underneath to make copies of them, werent they?

Even the documents and contracts that were typed by Japanese typewriters or English typewriters, carbonic papers were placed in between to make copies and the duplicated copies were thinner, werent they?
