Powdered Ink, Panther: The package is not authentic and I doubt that the ink formula is either, but it is powdered ink. You could create your own period package and put this ink inside. As far as the formula, the main difference between modern powdered ink and period powdered ink is that the period ink will turn brown over time. Unless you want to use aged documents, you will not notice the aging to brown. This is a blue black ink. We heat seal the zip lock package in a second package to prevent spillage and the associated mess. More items and information coming soon.
