Welcome to the group! I'm not big on labelled stuff since the humidity and roaches down here in the islands just kills stuff like that!

If you ever find an oriental ink though, I'm the guy to ask

Again, welcome to the community.

Wow, those inks are awesome! I only recognize the Athena ink. It comes from the Maruzen (丸善) Ink Co. out of Tokyo, Japan. They were a very popular brand at the time and their bottles are embossed with a big "M" on the base. Yours is probably pre-ww2 as all trademarks were abolished in Japan between around 1943-47. Not sure about the others. They don't appear Japanese. Super neat nonetheless.

The other bottles were sent to me about ten yeas ago by a Japanese ink collector

Welcome to the group. I collect inks also but I chase the colors more than the labels. But your collection is beautiful! I collect US inks and Penny inks for pleasure and photography!
