Default 1940 Dealer's list, real?

I am disposing of some articles for a friends widow, among the papers I found an eight page, Feb. 16,1940 Parker dealer's price list and I need help determining if it is real.

It certainly looks proper for the period, eight one sided pages, with holes for a ring binder. There is faint yellowing at the edges so it's not an acid free repro.

I have seen the repros from Cornells and they are color printed but they also say they were digitally enhanced.

Is an all B&W one the real deal?


thanks,

Rob

So many have been reproduced, it is hard to identify an original. I don't know how to do it and I collect the stuff. Post some pictures and someone may think it's original and make you an offer. On ebay, no one would believe it is original so don't even try. Oh my gosh, you said one sided? It's a repro or a copy or a rare and valuable factory price list, take your pick.
