DescriptionThis pen was made to promote the Genuine Parts Company, which was started in 1928, in Atlanta, Georgia. The company got its start after two brothers purchased the Motor Parts Depot, and renamed it Genuine Parts Company. The pen has a black center piece which has red and yellow text throughout. The text displays the company's name and location. The location was "412 MARBLE N.W. ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO." The top part of the pen is a piece of yellow plastic with a silver metal tip. The bottom end of the pen is also a silver metal with little rivets which run horizontally around the pen.
