Over the weekend, I purchased a QUART BOTTLE of Carter's Blue-Black Ink at a local Antique Store!
The bottle looks 100% full, and has the original box! The ink looks like it was bottled yesterday- no sedimentation at all!
I have already tried some of it- Looks greenish-blue, but faded. I recall thinking the same of the Sheaffer Quink BB that I purchased a year or two back as well! Holding on to it for now- Just goes to show that vintage ink was not as "vibrant" as modern inks! More info/pics to come!
