Happy 4th of July
Dr. P that looks like an attack by Mormon crickets
We'll be here until mizgeorge returns and Darla returns from rabbit hole

But its start with: Montblanc Enzo Ferrari, Beatles or Amethyst ?

[DrPenfection]

Thank you, Yazeh. While I do celebrate our Independence Day, it will be done so quietly. And it looks like it may rain, so I doubt the downtown casinos will be able to have their fireworks display. But, you never know what Americans are going to do!

No to all of the above:

Let me give you a start:

Color 1: Montblanc
Color 2:
Color 3:
Color 4:
Color 5: Montblanc
Color 6: Birmingham
Color 7:
Color 8: Diamine Cult Pens Summer
Color 9:
Color 10:
Color 11:
Color 12: Birmingham
Color 13:
Color 14:
Color 15: Stipula
Color 16:
Color 17:
Color 18: Waterman

Another hint: The inks on the ribbon are in order starting from the right to the left.

Remember there are:

5 Montblanc Inks:
5 Birmingham Inks:
2 Diamine Cult Pens Summer Inks:
1 Kobe
1 DeAtramentis
1 Stipula
1 Monteverde
1 GvFC
1 Waterman

And 5 of them have been inks that I have listed here this year.

If you would rather not play this game, let me know and I will post just one to guess. I just thought I might mix it up a bit. But I know that you can do this!

[Darla]

I’ll start with the easiest one:
Color 8 is Diamine Cult Pens Summer Caribbean Green, surely

[Darla]

And the even easier actually: Color 18 is clearly Waterman Tender Purple

[Yazeh]

Go Darla go!
#6 Black ice/Petroleum/Damselfly?
#7FOUNTAIN TURQUOISE

[Yazeh]

#15 Stipula Calamo Florentine Red
#16 Dark Red?
#17 Stipula Calamo Sweet Pink?

[Yazeh]

#1 Montblanc Elixir Violet de Cobalt?
Elixir Colorist Purple/ Lavender purple?

[DrPenfection]

Yes!

Here's the update (and a change on Color 15:

Color 1: Montblanc
Color 2:
Color 3:
Color 4:
Color 5: Montblanc
Color 6: Birmingham

Color 9:
Color 10:
Color 11:

Color 13:
Color 14:
Color 15:
Color 16: Stipula Calamo Dark Red (Yazeh)
Color 17:
Color 18: Waterman Tender Purple (Darla)

Well done, Darla and Yazeh! - you are on your way.

Forgive the change to Color 15. Color 15 and 16 are quite close.

[Yazeh]

#3/4 unicef/ miles Davis

[DrPenfection]

Go Darla go!

#7FOUNTAIN TURQUOISE

Correct ink, wrong number - it is darker than it looks.

[DrPenfection]

#3/4 unicef/ miles Davis

Yes on MB Unicef, no on Miles Davis (although I really, really want that ink!)

[Darla]

Color 1 Montblanc Violet? (I was sure it was Lavender Purple, Yazeh!)

[Darla]

Color 4 - Birmingham Monongahela?

[DrPenfection]

Great guesses, but no to both. Color 1 is fairly dark.

[DrPenfection]

Two more hints:

For the Montblanc inks, all are the first inks.
For the Birmingham inks, all are classified "Keystone" inks now.

Be sure to check back through 'guess the ink' for other inks that I have posted here.

[Yazeh]

#7 Birmingham bamboo shoot /keylime?

[DrPenfection]

#7 Birmingham bamboo shoot /keylime?

No. And #7 is not a Birmingham ink.

BTW Color #6 is one that you already mentioned earlier. You just had the wrong numbe.r

[Darla]

Let me swoop Yazeh here while I have the chance thanks to time zones 😂
Color 6 must be Birmingham Fountain Turquoise
