Show Us Your...Inkwells

[vitanola]

Inkwell by the Corbin company, c.1880. it sits on my desk at work.

1920s vintage Dresden reproduction of a Marco period inkwell. The painting is gloppy and inexpert, but it serves the purpose nonetheless.

common Esterbrook desk inkwells here. One is a WWII era army air forces labeled Esterbrook with a brown bakelite inkwell and the pen is also labeled Property of Air Force-U.S. Army. the USAAF and Air Corps labeled ones are a bit scarce. haven't cleaned it up yet and the pen is in highly used condition with some off white paint on the end of the handle to possibly custom mark it for some reason.
