Hello!

My mom and I went on an old pen shopping trip today, and I came away with this Sheaffer FP that I can't seem to identify. I hope it's an actual Sheaffer. There were two other pens just like this one, except for the color -- one was black, and the other was grey. The man I bought it from has sold to several collectors in my area, and I'd hate to think he's selling knockoffs alongside the real stuff...

I have attached some photos below. Any and all help is much appreciated. My mom also bought a Sheaffer mechanical pencil that I need help identifying, and I've posted about that in a separate thread on the "it writes, but isn't a fountain pen" forum.

Thanks very much for all your help!!!

It was made by Salor, when they had an agreement, so it is a Sheaffer. It looks like a TRZ, but if you take a picture from the side I would know for sure.

WOW! You guys are amazing!!! The wealth of knowledge among FPN members never ceases to amaze me!

 

It does appear to be a Sentinel, per this article: http://dirck.delint.ca/beta/?page_id=6392

 

THANK YOU SO MUCH for your help!!! Hope that someone can help identify my mom's new pencil, too! (That thread is here: https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php/topic/288615-help-identifying-a-vintage-sheaffer-mechanical-pencil-and-is-it-broken/?do=findComment&comment=3328339)

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
