Sanford Penit Ink, Thoughts Or Experience?

[AustinJF]

There is a set of N.O.S Sanford Penit ink in a local shop and was wondering if it is worth it to pick it up. it includes 2 bottles of washable Royal Blue, 2 bottles of blue black, 2 bottles of jet black copy ink, and then 1 bottle each of Cardinal Red, Green, Violet, Peacock blue, Dubonnet, and brown. The set of 12 is 70 dollars, though they are willing to split it up or come down a little bit as well. I was wondering if anyone had experience with these inks and what they thought of them since I have been unable to find a swab of any of these colors. So do any of you guys have experience with Sanford Penit ink?

I have a bottle of the washable blue ink. It is a good ink, and I certainly would buy more. I did however pay less for the bottle I bought, but it is a more common of the colors.

I recall seeing a thread on the forums here by someone who collected Sanford inks, pictures of the various bottles and some writing samples iirc but I just went through 7 pages of "Sanford ink" search results and didn't find it.

Just discovered that it wasn't Sanford I was recalling, it was Carter's inks. ToasterPastry posted several delightful reviews. I apologize for the mix up.
