Description
Three color 10″ x 13″ ad for their new Parker 45 Convertible pen. The ad features a picture of one of these pens on a scale being balanced with a gold nugget while the headline says “Only $5, but some people think its almost worth its weight in gold”. The text explains some of it’s features such has having a Solid 14k gold point, the fact that It’s “convertible” which means you could load it with a cartridge or fill it from an ink bottle and that it has Better ink mileage. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
