Well, my picture isn't going to be that nice but this is a Senior Marine Green Autograph with a factory clip that's been mis-applied. Everything is tight though and the pen looks uninked though it was very lightly used at one time. The color is much better than the pic shows.

I have this one on the way. minor scratches on the cap and barrel that should buff out nicely.

Y'all have probably seen this one before, but it's the only picture of a 14K-trim Sheaffer that I have handy. I'll shoot some others when I get a chance.

Hi Daniel. I really like the photo setup on that one. I'll borrow it for my next one.

This next picture is a 1918 #8 Black Hard Rubber Autograph. The cap, nib, early feed and section are all excellent. The original barrel is just ok so a 1924 Radite model is standing in until a nice rubber one can be found. This pen is what most would call the rarest of all the Autograph pens.

As for the next suspect, this one is a Full Size Balance Autograph in Black and Pearl dating from 1933 or 1934. Near mint condition with mild discoloration of the barrel. Two tone nib.

yeah, since that Balance has a bit of discoloration to the barrel, you should really find a perfect one. go ahead and box it up and send it to me, and i'll pay the postage for your trouble :lol:

 

seriously though, beautiful pen!

It just wasn't likely to have been Kodachrome.  It would have been the films I referred to as "other color films." (Kodachrome is not a generic term for color film.

      @Ceilidh -- Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color, not just B&W like I learned to process.  Whether they were doing the processing of the film themselves in one of the darkrooms, or sending their stuff out to be processed commercially?  That I don't actually know, but had always assumed that they were processing their own film.

      Kodachrome 25 was the most accurate film for clinical photography and was used by dermatologists everywhere. I got magnificent results with a Nikon F2 and a MicroNikkor 60 mm lens, using a manually calibrated small flash on a bracket. I wish there were a filter called "Kodachrome 25 color balance" on my iPhone camera.
