All of the Pickering styli I have look like this. The difference seems to be whether a brush is included or not. The T4P cartridges I have seen (Pickering) don't seem to include the brush, for some reason.

Regarding the shape, this low-cut design is exactly the same as the other dozen or so NOS Pickering styli I have. I have seen diagrams of the high-sided Pickering stylus on the original issue T4P cartridges, but have never seen one in the flesh. It may be that, in order to suggest difference between this OEM design and the standard version of the same, a different stylus housing shape was used. From what I can tell, it still has the 'PC' stamp on the front of it. Will know for sure when we get ours.

Right now, I'm more concerned that they are straight and still flexible!
