Pencil mustaches intrigue me. I always wondered how difficult it was to maintain one. My favorite pencil mustache is William Powell's and I see he's mentioned in this thread multiple times, so here are a couple of pics my other favorites:

A question: Can anyone trace when the pencil mustache trend first began in America? Like, who were some of the first stars to wear them (pre Gable), and in what films? And for those who can remember, were they still in popularity into the early (pre-Hippie) 60s?
