Description

Civil War-Era “Payson’s Indelible Ink” with Original Brush – Dated 1858 – Inventory Number: MIS 310 / SOLD An exceptional surviving example of Payson’s Indelible Ink, patented and widely used in the mid-19th century for permanently marking textiles, military gear, and personal belongings.
