An Ink Bottle Lot - Stephens Inks c1900 - Good Condition
Stephens' Ink' was invented by the British physician, Dr Henry Stephens (1796-1864), who in 1832 first developed his indelible "blue-black writing fluid" that became the basis of a successful manufacturing enterprise lasting over 130 years. Stephens' ink revolutionised office life in the latter half of the 19th century saving clerical workers much time previously spent mixing powdered inks and cleaning nibs. Being indelible and non-fading, Stephens' ink was made mandatory by the British government for all for legal documents and ships' log books. This lot includes 5 old Clay Ink Bottles and the money is the large one in the middle with the original Stephens Ink Label. A very good collectible bottle lot.
