Subject: Carbon ink
I am a MA conservation student from Camberwell College of Arts. I am doing my MA research about ancient carbon ink, especially those were used in Asian countries. I am looking for an article or book by Li Hsiao-mei, entitled "MO P'u Fa Shih" (Handbook of ink recipes and inkmakers), in Mei Shu Ts'ung Shu, published by Yee-wen, in Taipei, in 1947. I have searched the British Library, as well as the relevant journal websites. But I couldn't find it. I got the notes of this book from an article "Chinese Ink and Inkmaking" by Lily Chia-jen Kecskes, published on Printing History 15, Vol8, No,1 1986. If anybody know where to find this article, please feel free to give me information.
