Scribe & Flo-Master

The Scribe was one of Esterbrook's few Ballpoints that did not have a matching pencil or fountain pen. Development of this pen came somewhere around 1961.

Scribe Demonstrator

This particular demonstrator sports a Safari style clip, but appears to have been put on as an afterthought. The original hole for the clip is in place on the opposite side of the barrel, but appears to have cracked. New holes were drilled on this side to accomodate the Safari clip.

This is another Scribe Demonstrator, this one being exactly like the final production model with proper clip, different push button, and Esterbrook imprinted on the barrel.
