If you're a 21st-century amateur, the question of aging camping ink still remains. Camping inks from the last 60/70 years are made with high tannins to prevent discoloration and color shifting over time, mixed with biocides (not present), gum arabic (not present), rock alum (not present), chromium salts (not present), copper sulfate (not present), and acetic or oxalic acid (not present).
