Description
Full color 10″ x 14″ ad that is for the Eversharp Pens. This ad has a very appealing photo with a lady in a very sheer red dress has reached up to her date’s pocket and is removing the Eversharp pen from it as the lead question in the ad is to “Get ready for the $64 Question When you give him an Eversharp!”. It then says that “You can’t miss. For here’s the pen everybody wants. Self-Blotting – with quick-dry ink…writes perfectly with any ink. The Tip is streamlined, hooded – directional. The Magic Point is so smooth you can’t even hear it write. New Magic Feed prevents leaking – high in a plane – so at ground level, too. Streamlined, tailored – perfectly balanced. Friction-snap cap, deep-pocket military clip, and barrel-end are 14-karat gold over sterling silver – barrels in choice of smart colors. Made by the world’s largest manufacturers of fountain pens and pencils. Compare!”. Near the bottom of the page it shows the “New Eversharp ‘Fifth Avenue Set’ $19.00 Pen $12.50 and Pencil $6.50″.
