The fact is it took Geo. S. Parker 30 years of infinite pains to perfect this black tipped, lacquer-red beauty with the 25-year point. Toproduce this pen in quantity requires a greatcrafte-guild; for Duofold is built with j“m"',"l precision, and ordinary workmanship looks ordinary beside it. In making Ducfold each operation is inspected, then the assembled pen is filled and written with by the final inspectors. It must be perfoct orit cannot pass. Go to the nearest pen counter and write with Parker Duofold and ordinary pens to see how marked is Duofold’s smoothness, its balanced swing, its classic shapeliness and finish, its mechanical excellence and over-sise ink capacity. If you are a discriminating buyer, no other pen will satisfy. Any good pen counter will welcome your trial, and include & neat gold pocket-clip or gold ring-end with Duofold.
