SHEAFFER SNORKEL - Catalogs and Research
(Preview)
I was thinking that the Sheaffer catalog section was getting a bit filled up with jpegs. I have a lot of stuff about the Snorkel series and I didn't want them to get caught up in all that. The information coming in my next post is from a Sheaffer company seminar given to their Sales Force when the Snorkel f...

Conklin Catalogs

This was the big boy with the number one selling pen in 1910. Here's a flier from around that date. I had to do some whiting out of the background given the condition of the original and to cobble together the large one. PeteWK

Dunn Pen Catalogs

It wouldn't be fair to leave out the folks who collect those pens that hold ink like a camel. For starters we have a flier. All of these are from the 1920s as Dunn was only in business for a scant few years. PeteWK

AA Waterman Catalog

This wouldn't exactly be the king of catalogs, that's for sure. But if you collect this odd brand, there just isn't anything out there for you. I hope this helps someone. If you know someone who collects them, let them know this is here. I scanned these from originals in color. If they're too hard t...

Franklin Pens

I am still looking for any history I can find on Franklin Pens of Philadelphia. I believe they operated into the 1930's- they were a major player in the early days of pen making.... Â Â Frank
