Sheaffer Snorkel Colors & Models

(This page revised November 17, 2017)

This chart is designed to help identify the model of Sheaffer Snorkels and the various colors.

Snorkels were offered in a remarkably broad range of colors, plus solid gold and gold filled — but not every model was offered in every color.
The following table lists the various models, with the colors each appeared in.

I would like to acknowledge the following for their knowledge, previous research. and photos.
Richard Binder for his tables of colors, layout and features. His information was verified as accurate via Sheaffer's 1953 catalog. 
David Rzeszotarski for his photo of Snorkels.
The late Sam Marshall for his early reasearch in colors of specific models.
Daniel Kirchheimer provided certain primary-source information.
