1930 Parker Pockeet catalog

[Researcher]

How can we tell if it is an original or the repro that Barton Press offered back in the late 1960s?

[Travis Scott]

I think it's original all marking I see say 1930.

Barton's repro was pretty darn good.



At some point they started putting this stamp on them --



But, I see so many of these Jan. 1, 1930 catalogues, that I feel a lot of the Barton repros are out there without the stamp.

Just because it says 1930, does not mean it is. There were a lot of reprductions out there, without seeing it in hand very hard to tell.
