The Parker Pen Company,
Gentlemen:
At 4:10 P. M. yesterday I took off in
my Yackey plane from Checkerboard
field. When I reached an altitude of
3000 feet I leaned over the side and
dropped a Parker Over-size Duofold
Pen. A few minutes later I made a
landing near my starting point, and a
crowd was examining the same Parker
Duofold pen, which had landed on
hard ground. To my great surprise,
the pen had not been damaged in the
slightest by its 3000 feet drop.

dropped 3000,/ee£«

'\7'ES, the Parker Duofold Pen
i was tossed from an aeroplane
at dizzy altitude to test our new
Non-Breakable material “Perma-
nite,” and landed 3000 feet below
—unharmed.
Tests such as this are the best
guarantees that a pen will last
practically forever.
For a year we kept secret the
fact that Parker Duofold Pens and
Pencils have barrels of this new
lustrous, beautiful, light-weight
Permanite until a whole series cf
heroic demonstrations proved
that it does not break.
This black-tipped lacquer-red
beauty is not only the smartest,
shapeliest pen, but the greatest
writing instrument the world has
ever seen. Its yielding, super
smooth point is guaranteed 25
years not only for mechanical per
fection but for wear.
Choose your point and color at
any good pen counter. But look
with care for the name “Geo. S.
Parker” on the barrel—the mark
of highest excellence.

was as old as that.
Assuming there will be a Quaker

says to Mr. Tunney, “Thou art out
