Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 1/2″ ad for their Kimberly Pockette pens. The ad shows a man wearing a hat and holding up for size comparison a regular cigarette in one hand and a Kimberly Pockette pen in the other. The headline asks you to “Imagine a Pen not much longer than your cigarette!…when open it’s a full size pen – with full ink supply!”. The text describes how it will close up and fit into a variety of convenient spots and how it rolls ink on dry with its Magic Sphere Point from any angle. It mentions a price for the pen with the 14-K gold-filled band of $7.50 and only $4.95 for the one with the Chrome band.
