I mentioned to Blobbottle Bob I would be doing this as a new years resolution earlier this year. Here are some of my best finds.

Two of the Farley's are Green, the short one more so than the other. I believe the little green one came out of one of the earlier Stoddard Glasshouses and the others from Granite and New Granite. Any green from Stoddard is really rare and Im thankful I was luck enough to find it.

This next ink is just like the little Farley,s and was found with them. It has an open hole that I do not believe is damaged but a manufacturers flaw and maybe the plugged it with something at the factory because the inside edges are smooth (I tried to get a good photo of it). Super light and crude.

pontil shots notice the green is completely different than the others with a pushed in pontil with twice as much glass as the other two.
