The pit diggins have been electrifying lately. Nice work jgas

Thanks for the replies everyone, the pit was a blast and exciting for sure. It's great to see wood ash in a pit now and again cause that means oldies!!

Anyone seen any Staffords Master Inks like these before, just wondering on rarity. We have never seen any like these??
Thanks, jgas

There are none on ebay right now but ,have seen them on there before. My impression was they are rarer than the cobalt ones. If memory serves me right the few I have seen went in the $60 range,not sure though. I have dug quite a few of the cobalt,clear, & aqua ones but not a green one,once again ,Congrats !!!

I went diggin through my auction catalogs looking for more info for you, and came across this,,(no copyright infringment intended) in an American Bottle Auction from Aug of 2008.Same as yours ,sold for $100. Also in another auction your plain(unembossed) green Master ink ,sold for $90. What a great hole for your collection as well as the wallet

Thanks Pikes, and Epackage: I am going to get these polished up soon and maybe I will post some updated pics soon. The Scroll flask is in the tumbler as we speak so hopefully it will turn out spotless. Believe it or not this particular variety which I think is a GIX 10 or a GIX10a will either be common or scarce depending on which one. They are very close. The points on the stars tell all. I think it looks like the more scarce variety( I hope). They sell for anywhere from $50 on up the the hundreds.

I think the inks may go pretty good. Depending on who is watching and who wants them. Its a "crap shoot" from a crapper of course Thanks for the replies. jgas
