GENERAL INFORMATION. Designed as another Reader's Digest merchandise rebate, the pen stand places the Aluminum Company of America's double triangle trademark, designed into a strong man, on a large and smaller box of "Super Strength" Alcoa Wrap. A piece of metal is cast into the figure to support the thin junction point of the two triangles.
