So I new that this 1894 Carters ink was pretty cool and then I saw there is a Dark Yellow Green Carters that is pretty rare. I can't tell the difference. Maybe I can get a some input from everyone on what they think.

Ground control to major cool. That thing is really neat. Who wouldn't want that in their window? I know nothing of its rarity or value but my guess is that it's pretty good. Nice find.

Thanks Triple B. I found similar ones on ebay and just the certain coloring has a sell value of between $40 and - $480. Yellow green is the winner winner chicken diner. Not sure if this is that one or not.

Tough call when the sunlight is hitting it in that way, thinking the sunlight is giving it some of it's 'yellowness', great ink either way...

If you're considering selling it Lona I would make sure to take alot of pics under good lighting with a white background, the color will help sell it for what it's true worth is, there are alot of ink collectors so Ebay will get you all the looks at it you'll need to get top dollar for it, and there's no better time than right before Christmas for something like this in my opinion... Good luck if you do sell it, and enjoy it if you decide to keep it...[;)]
