For documents that need to be taken seriously. Resignation letters, for example.
In stock. Ships tomorrow from Scranton.
A heavier, smoother sheet with 25% cotton content and a watermark you can see when you hold it up to the light. It is what we recommend for contracts, letters of reference and anything else that will be read twice.
Our customer service team reports that it is also our most popular paper for resignation letters. We have decided to take that as a compliment to the paper.

Paper is basically over, but I needed something serious for a resignation letter. Heavy, clean, reads well. Would resign again.
We use this for all formal documentation. I’m not sure anyone reads it, but it feels substantial when I hand it over.
Picked by the Scranton branch, from what customers bought alongside it.
