The new Pelikan is on top (top right on the third picture) and the 1987 version on bottom. The stripes are straight and darker on the new model and wavy and brighter on the old. The golden circle on the knob belongs to the 1987 model.
They are far from identical. From the celluloid patterns to the decoration on cap jewel and piston knob, the differences are very clear.
My thanks to Kugel 149.

Hi Bruno,
Wonderful article! I love Pels...when I'm able to use them (my nickel allergy...sigh...).
Sorry to hear about the pilfering blog. Perhaps you can report it to Google/Blogger?
Thanks!
