Description

Ballpoint pen commemorating the celebration of South River's 250th anniversary in 1970. The barrel is white plastic with a red end and click button. "254-1616, Main Pharmacy salutes 250th Anniversary, South River 1720-1970" is printed in blue on the white portion of the barrel. The pen has a click button at the end to extend the tip but the button is frozen in place, likely due to rust on the spring and cartridge. The pen measures 4 3/4" and is in poor condition with extensive staining and water damage.
