Yes. Vintage felt tip marker. I would guess it is a Sanford since they were (still are I believe) the best selling. They're the guys who make Sharpies.

Not sure when they started making felt tip markers but I'd guess 1950's or 60's.

Yep! I traded for one in the late 50's. Still have one now. It was amazing, would write on anything, and the smell would almost put you to sleep!!
