Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 13″ ad for their Ballpoint Pens with the Exclusive Sterling Silver Tip. The claim, next to a closeup of this tip, says that it “Writes longer than any ballpoint ever made!”. It talks about the Sterling Silver doing away with many of the causes of pens skipping, spurting or having a short life and offers All-Metal Models in 6 Iridescent colors or a Transparent Unit with “capacity you can see”. The price mentioned is $2.95 and they say that “When it comes to writing – come to Shaffer’s“.
