Donn F. Eisele

Note: My impression is that Eisele had only the two Autopen patterns shown below. However, he tended to sign using a style and a type of pen that is easily mistaken for an Autopen, leading to people think there are more patterns than is actually the case.

Pattern 1

Seen used in 1966 and 1968.
