I37. McCaffery’s Penman’s Ink. This oak gall ink was<br />
developed with the help of leading penmen of today to<br />
provide an ink similar to that used during America’s<br />

20th centuries. With a newly opened bottle, the ink<br />
writes brown, but turns a dense black. Good for fine<br />
hairlines. (Colors and ivory are not oak gall inks).<br />
