Could anyone identify this pen for me?



Thanks, ....Norm

That's a Stylist, from the 1970s. The Stylist came out in the '60s and had a two-sided flippable nib:



Later Sheaffer changed the pen to use the small Triumph nib that came out in '57 on the Skripsert, a little smaller than the one on a Snorkel, and that's the version you have. If you're interested in diisposing of it... smile.gif

Hi Norm,
Does your pen have a Sheaffer Converter??
Looks like a strange converter line, I've seen the early sheaffer button filler conv. but not yours...
Thanks for comments,

The converter is a fairly uncommon Sheaffer Skrip converter, one that uses the same filling principle as the Sager Barrel O Ink pen. It was the first Sheaffer converter (c1963 / 1964) and was designed to fit in early non-converter friendly Sheaffer cartridge pens.

More about them here:

I wonder if they changed the style of nib because the one you have, (and I have) leaked without Giovani's wonderful section sealant.
