Hey you guys,

Most of the ink stained wretches call these "Umbrellas." What's the bottom look like, and could you show it with light coming from behind so as to show the color, please?

Y'all have been digging some wonderful inks. That shielded and scrolled cologne or perfume is a knockout, as well., and one I'd like to see more of...

"CAWS INK COMPANY ~ Francis Cashel Brown

Early in 1886, Brown joined the Fountain Ink Company of 62 Cliff Street, New York as a trustee. Here he fell in love with their crow-colored ink and devised the name "Caws." By October Fountain Ink suddenly went broke and Brown bought the assets in a bankruptcy sale. He changed the name to "Caw's Ink and Pen Company", and named his wife its President. Besides ink, he quickly started manufacturing and advertising the Dashaway pen that he and David W. Beaumel patented in November, 1886. Brown also opened a store at 233 Broadway where he employed Aunt Camille to handle the retail business..." From Rick's Bottle Room.
