Resources For Identifying Eclipse Fountain Pens?

Recommended Posts

I just bought an old Eclipse (it's en route right now), and am having a hell of a time finding out the usual product info: Date of manufacture, model, name of colour. Canadian and American production were simultaneous for many years, and produced different models from one another, so there's a dazzling baffling array of them out there. I'm posting the pic that the seller sent me, in case someone happens to know this particular pen. Regardless, I'd love to know of good resources for identifying Eclipse pens, as I'm sure more of them will find a way into my collection.

 

The Eclipse is at the top of both pictures. I tried looking for others with the same type of band, but only found one that might have the same. The nib is Eclipse, but I haven't seen the clip. The old lady I bought them from didn't know what was going on, so she identified them from the engravings on the nibs. They worked out to $15 each after shipping, so I didn't really press the issue.

 

Where was I going with that? Oh, did any of Eclipse's sub-brands have Eclipse nibs, and I'm barking up the wrong tree?

 

PS. I added the pic of the nibs because everyone loves more pictures, even if we don't need them.
