Going to the Font of All Knowledge
Jun. 15th, 2007 01:18 pmSo, is remotely affordable nice stationery -- letter sheets I mean -- just a thing of the past?
I was looking at the Crane's website and they seem only to do notecards any more, as if writing an entire single page, let alone multiple pages, is just not something anyone would ever want to do. And while a place calling itself The Stationery Studio does sell letter sheets, I happen to think $50.00 for 25 sheets, even custom personalized sheets, if they're not also, oh, I dunno, gold-foil-stamped, deep embossed, and impregnated with cocaine, is completely insane. I keep thinking I'd like to go back to writing more letters on paper with a pen, but I don't think I really want to work primarily on three-hole binder paper. Do I have to make my own stationery now?
