The "Magic Ink" marking pen, first developed and sold in Japan in 1953. In the immediate post-war period, a writing instrument that could write on anything and dried quickly was revolutionary. The dream express, Magic Ink, came in a limited edition 8-color set. Each color's label was inspired by the Sanyo Shinkansen's stops, such as Hiroshima for red and Shin-Osaka for yellow. When the eight boxes representing the train cars are lined up, a small 0 Series Shinkansen is completed. It's a stationery item that can be enjoyed both as a display and for use. ● A long-selling oil-based marker. ● Can be used on paper, cloth, leather, cardboard, wood, metal, ceramics, glass, and plastic. ● Excellent quick-drying and water-resistant properties. ● Refillable ink and replaceable pen tips, allowing for repeated use with separately sold refill ink and replacement pen tips, making it both ecological and economical. ■ Oil-based pigment ■ Size: Outer box/W248 x H95 x D30mm ■ Contents: Black/Orange/Brown/Green/Pink/Yellow/Red/Blue Retail price: 2,200 yen Although mostly unused, it has been tested to check the ink (see photo 1).
