THE FAMOUS “PRESSURELESS TOUCH" HAS MADE IT THE FAVORITE OF
MILLIONS
IT'S ABSOLUTELY true that many people would never think of owning any pen but a Parker Duofold. It writes so easily, holds so much ink, and looks so well in their pockets and on their desks that they just won't change!
Try a Parker yourself, if you've never used one. Hold the pen lightly between your thumb and fore finger. Let the point barely touch the paper. You'ro writing words without pressure, without strain or effort! That's Parker's famous "pressureless touch," the exclusivo feature that munkes writing easier than ever before!
Ask the agent to explain the Parker's many other superiorities: Leak-proof, non-breakable barrel. Con- cealed button filler. Gold point, tested cleven times. And the handsomest pen you can huy, with a choice of many exquisite colors! For sale at all good stores.
