This image depicts a sample of "Carbon Black," presented in two forms. On the left, there is a clear glass jar labeled "Carbon Black" with "Wishnick-Tumpeer, Inc." written on the aged paper tag wrapped around its center. The jar contains a fine black powder and is sealed with a black lid. A white number "19" is marked on the exterior of the glass.

On the right, there is a flat rectangular sample card displaying carbon black applied in two different forms: the upper surface is labeled "above - size" and has a smooth, even black finish, while the lower section, labeled "below - linseed oil," has a slightly different texture, reflecting its mixture with the oil. Both labels are printed on a beige paper attached to the card.

To the far right, a small grayscale color chart and ruler are visible, presumably for color or scale reference measurements. The overall image appears to be part of a materials catalog.

The image shows a small glass jar and a rectangular sample card of carbon black pigment. The jar has a black lid and is filled with carbon black pigment, displaying the number "19" on the glass. It has a paper label that reads "CARBON BLACK" at the top, with "Wishnick-Tumpeer, Inc." printed below it.

Next to the jar is a rectangular card divided into two sections with a note at the bottom indicating the materials used above and below. The upper section is labeled "size," and appears slightly rough or textured with the carbon black pigment applied to it. The lower section is labeled "linseed oil" and is a darker, smoother sample of the pigment mixed with linseed oil.

To the right of the card is a scale or color swatch, with measurements reading from 0 to 40 and gradient shades of gray to help gauge the color intensity. The background is a plain white surface.

The image shows two items related to carbon black. On the left is a glass container labeled "Carbon Black" with the number "19" written on it. On the right is a rectangular black object, which appears to be a piece of carbon black. The label on the black object states "Carbon Black" and provides information that the "above" part is the carbon black and the "below" part is linseed oil.

This image shows a glass bottle containing carbon black pigment from Wishnick-Tumpeer Inc. The bottle has a black screw-on cap and contains a dark black substance. There are two aged, beige-colored labels on the bottle - one wrapped around it and another card or label beside it. The labels indicate this is "CARBON BLACK" and mention "linseed oil" on the lower label. The bottle appears to be photographed against a white background with what looks like a measurement scale visible on the right side of the image. The number "19" is visible on the bottle. This appears to be a vintage or historical pigment sample, given the aged appearance of the labels.

The image shows a scientific display, likely from a paint or pigment testing context. Here's a breakdown:

Main Components:

  • Jar: A small, transparent glass jar with a black lid. It's labeled with a paper band that reads "CARBON BLACK" and "Wishnick-Tumpeer Inc." A large "19" is printed on a black label affixed to the jar. The jar is filled with a dark, likely black substance.
  • Test Strip: A rectangular block, also labeled "CARBON BLACK". The upper portion of the block appears smooth and glossy. The lower portion of the block appears textured. Beneath the block is a tan-colored paper label that states "above- size / below - linseed oil".
  • Color Chart: A small color chart with different values.

Details and Interpretation:

  • The objects suggest this is a study comparing the properties of carbon black pigment. The jar contains carbon black in powdered form, the strip might show the pigment applied with a binder (likely the size) and a comparison made with linseed oil, possibly to test its properties when used in oil paints.
  • The reference color chart is probably used for visual comparisons.
  • The "above - size" and "below - linseed oil" description suggests a comparison of the effect on the carbon black.

The image showcases a vintage presentation of "Carbon Black" pigment. On the left, a clear glass jar with a black lid is filled with a dark substance, presumably the Carbon Black itself. A label adhered to the jar reads "CARBON BLACK" and "Wishnick-Tumpeer Inc." Below the dark substance, a large "19" is printed in white.

To the right of the jar, there is a tall, narrow rectangular block with a black surface. This block is attached to a paper base that reads "CARBON BLACK," "above - size," and "below - linseed oil." This suggests that the block demonstrates the pigment's appearance in different mediums or treatments, with the upper portion likely showing the pigment with a size additive and the lower portion with linseed oil.

To the right of the block, a grey scale bar is visible for colour reference. The background is a neutral white, providing a clean backdrop for the items. The image has a slightly aged feel, adding to the vintage aesthetic.

The image shows a small glass jar and a cardboard card, both labeled "Carbon Black."

  • The glass jar has a black lid and contains a dark substance, likely carbon black pigment. The jar is labeled with the number "19" on the front and has a paper label around its middle that reads "CARBON BLACK" and "Wishnick-TumpeĆ©r Inc."

  • The cardboard card is divided into two sections. The top section is black, presumably showing the color of the carbon black pigment. The bottom section is a lighter brown color and is labeled "linseed oil." The card also has text that reads "CARBON BLACK above - size below - linseed oil."

  • To the right of the items, there is a ruler for scale, showing measurements in centimeters. The jar appears to be approximately 7 cm tall, and the cardboard card is approximately 10 cm tall.

This setup seems to be a sample of carbon black pigment along with a reference card showing the pigment mixed with linseed oil.
