Description
Three color 9 1/2″ x 12″ ad shows five models available this year with descriptions and their prices. Shown are the Timex Petite for 10.95, the Timex Sportster for 12.95, the Timex Mercury for 10.95, the chrome Timex Marlin for 12.95 and the Gold-Tone Timex Marlin which also costs 12.95.
