Spectraltfarben : Anzeige herausgegeben von Kast & Ehinger GMBH, Stuttgart : in : Deutscher Drucker : Februar 1927
"Lichtecht, Spritecht, Wasserecht, Hochconcentriert, Brillant" - the Spectraltfarben/Spectral Colours of Kast & Ehinger Gmbh of Stuttgart described in a February 1927 advert in Deutscher Drucker. They can be translated as being lightfast, sprightly, water resistant, highly concentrated and brilliant and these claimed qualities are put to the test in this wonderful advert by "Entwurf Propaganda" of Stuttgart.
The company appears to have been formed in around 1865 by Kast who was joined by Ehringer in 1868. The company prospered, being allied with Stuttgart-based company G. Siegle & Co., in the manufacturing of colours and inks with the main works in Stuttgart-Feuerbach. Bombed in 1944 much of the main works was reconstructed in the early 1950s and in 1970 they were acquired by BASF. Later forming part of the multi-national Flint company apparently a range of "K+E Inks" is still available.
