Hi all, sorry for this post but i need to pick some brains that are bigger than mine (not too difficult 🤪)

 

i think this one is a Craftsman going by the barrel and cap profile, but its a lever filler and the cap band is quite narrow. Online searches have turned up very little.

 

nib is marked: Sheaffers 33 Made in USA 14K

 

Barrel marked: W. A. Sheaffer, Fort Madison etc, Made in USA. Then crudely stamped “350”

 

any and all help will be gratefully received 👍🏻

I am not that familiar with the different names of these models but I think that this 350 Sheaffer is indeed a Craftsman.

 

The narrow cap band is also called a "wire-band" or "bead-band" by collectors so check the net with these two search terms and you will probably find all info that you are looking for.

This is a good start:
