Bottom line: There was not one but three different versions of Inky the octopus, including a gray octopus, a gray octopus with no mouth and a smiling pink octopus. This is an example of the extremely rare pink version, with the older PVC pellets and several tag errors.
The pink version is also the only one with a poem, which read:
"Inky's head is big and round
As he swims he makes no sound
If you need a hand, don't hesitate
Inky can help because he has eight!"
