The injustice of it . . . that you found this ink, and I didn't!! WTG anyway!

Re: Tea kettle ink plum puce found
I think this is a BANNER find. Auction prices for these are always great, say $500 plus for fine complete examples. Nice recovery glassman. I thought it would be hard to beat that nice teal one you got not long ago...but you did it with this one.
