Can Anyone Help Me Id My Great-Great-Grandfather's Pen?

I've been doing some research about it, however these are all of the pics I have right now (I do not have the pen yet, it is being shipped to me by my grandmother).

I THINK it is a Scroll or something similar, from around 1915-1920 or so. However, every Scroll I have seen pictures of, the bottom section is shorter and has lines, like so: http://imgur.com/a/K6OjQ . Any info is greatly appreciated!

Perhaps, as I said in the description of the album I'm not exactly well versed in vintage pens. I've only been into fountain pens for about 6 months, so this is my first "old" pen. Do you by chance have any links or similar for more info about this one? Thanks for your input :)

Nice picture of four of my pens in the example on scrolls. The end of the pen can vary so don't get hung up on that, even in my example the overlay is open at the end. He had a very nice pen. If you could show the section you might be able to limit the dating a bit further. It'd be a 37 more likely than anything else. I think the only thing that would be an N3 is the blue balance.

I agree, it is a very nice pen, thanks. I found that pic on an old forum post from a different board, I have to say you have quite the collection man. The pen is unfortunately not in my possession just yet but when it is I will be sure to take a few more pictures before I send it to be restored.

 

Thanks for the info, especially from your website!

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
