Frank Deli (October 10 1886 – 1946) was a Chicago businessman. Deli was born in the Austro-Hungarian Empire and emigrated to the United States in 1903. In the early 1920s Deli helped found the Autopoint Company. He helped pioneer the use of plastics to make pencils. Apparently Deli did not sell his share when the Bakelite Corporation took control of Autopoint. He worked for Autopoint until his death in 1946.
