It is not often that the
Observer Book 8tore has
an opportunity to offer a
genuine bargain.
It is still more rare to
be able to pick up a gen
uine bargain at'ChriBt-
maB time.
But here is an honest
bargain in Fountain Pen
the kind we have sold
all year for 91.60 each
can now be had for only
91.00.
That is a bargain, is it
not?
Along the same line
you can get a self-filling,
self - cleaning, fountain
pen from The Observer
Book Store,for only 91 50
the kind we have sold
plenty of at 92.25, and
which has given satisfac
tion to all users.
We have several dozen
but not a big lot, to sell
at these low prices. The
cause is that the factory
sent us a double order
and they made the price
lower to us rather than
pay charge^ and take the
goods back.
Now don’t wait Until
these pens are all sold, and then try
to make us sorry that you didn’t
come sooner.
