David-
Thanks for the info. I did not know that Snorkels ever came in chrome trim at all. I had assumed that if the trim was chrome, it would be a later, cheaper pen like the late touchdown fillers. Clearly, though, the cap that you picture has all the signs of a Snorkel cap, like the smooth clip and the incised lines on the cap band.

Thanks,
Jason

David- What do you mean by "reverse-trim?" I am having a hard time picturing such a pen

Thanks, Jason

Hi- I found a clue!! I was just looking at the Sears Diamond Medal thread, and in the catalog scans there are some Good Service pens that have the same triangle imprint on the nib. Now, if I could just figure out what that means, as I would expect many more similar pens around if Sears had sold them.

Thanks for the input. I am a long time lurker, and have never seen a photo like this pen on the "other" site either. I am somewhat scared of hurting a weird pen. I will hopefully get to go to the DC pen show. Should I bring this along to see if anyone has any ideas?
