Mallory and Duracell names and the words "mercury battery" below the
name. In 1964 the P. R.
Mallory Company, makers of Mallory batteries, trademarked the name
"Duracell", which stood for "durable cell" battery.
Between 1964 and 1980 Mallory batteries carried the double Duracell
and Mallory brand names. This red Mallory/Duracell battery was made
within that time period.
