    Default Limited Edition Inks at Ohio Pen Show

    The Central Ohio Pen Club will be selling two Limited Edition inks at the Ohio Pen Show October 31 – November 3 in Dublin, OH (suburban Columbus).

    The first ink is “Park of Roses”, inspired by a park of the same name in Columbus. It is a nicely shading ink that depending on your nib size and paper shows various hues of burgundy, red, and deep pink as seen in Burgundy or Black Bacarra Roses.

    The second ink is “Storm Warning”, inspired by the appearance of the sky during a Midwestern thunderstorm. To some people the ink appears gray with a green hue; others describe it as a deep olive with grey tone.

    Each ink will be limited to 50 bottles and will be packaged in 50ml glass pedestal shaped bottles like those formerly used by Bung Box. Each will be priced at $20. No sales will be made prior to the show or other than at the show, although any unsold ink after the show may be offered on the sales board at this site.

    Please note that due to scanner and monitor differences, the color samples below may not be a perfect representation of the actual ink color, but are hopefully close. Actual samples will be available at the show so you can try before you buy.

    Both look nice. May I ask which company made these inks?

    Park of Roses looks really nice.

    Who's going to the SF Pen show?

    Please, just don't ask who isn't going to the San Francisco Pen Show!

    The inks were custom mixed to our formulas by Straits Pens of Singapore

    When subjected to sitting water or a stream of water, both ran but were still legible, the Storm Warning more so than the Park of Roses

    Are you going to the Dallas Pen Show, Fred?



    I like the Weather one of the two inks. But then again I like most dusty, olive, greenish, greyish inks.

    Why? Nobody is going? It is in Deadwood City, not San Francisco. Easy parking and no needles or drug addicts.

    Edit: Oh ok, never mind. You meant you. My bad. There will be pictures, so at least you can attend virtually.
