I was at my local stationary store today and I came across this 2:1 template for hand drawn PCBs.

Thanks a lot. Earlier I came across some tutorials on Home-made PCBs like this :

It's a pleasure to see these templates for making the work easier.

I still have schematic symbols, geometric figures (circles, ellipses, polygons), and other useful templates, most from that company.
Note that there is a finite pencil-width allowance when using them.

I would say that this has been sitting on their shelf for more than 40 years. I used to use a stencil like that for doing initial component placement sketches for hand PCB layout way back in the 1970's

There is no practical use for such items in today's world where powerful PCB CAD programs are readily available. I think they might have to mark down quite a bit more if they want to sell it.
