1945 Parker "51" For Christmas If You Please - Very Scarce this Year N767

This original 7 x 10" magazine ad from 1945 showcases how hard it is to find a genuine Parker "51" fountain pen in 1945 due to wartime shortages and priorities.  This requestor is pleading with his giftors to continue to try to find one and if they can't he will happily wait as long as when they do find one it is the "real McCoy".
