I'm not sure that either one is correct. Here is a photo of the stubby from my January 1959 Convertible D.

the one you posted looks like one from an "early" A kit:

The short screwdriver that came with my 59 GT Carrera had no paint on the handle.
I looks like the smaller of the two shown/shapewise.

Anyone else with a '58 or '59 short stubby screw driver that can shed some light?

The smaller painted one looks correct. I still have the stubby from my 1st Conv.D(86329 bought in 1960 W/14,000 mi. , Tool kit was intact. I think they had various vendors and grabbed whatever was available.
