Summary
One pint earthenware jar of 'Stephen's Blue-Black Copying Fluid'. Cylindrical with lightly concave base, sharp angular shoulder at the top surmounted with a another angle to a short neck with thick rim and pouting spout. Brown glazed grey earthenware with black grit inclusions, with a stamp near the base marked 'Bourne, Denby'. The original label is stuck on the side, with old fashioned engraved design, but it may be recent (eg. 1930's - 40's). Still contains some copying ink.
