Crane "old Money" Or "blue Denim" Stationery

Recommended Posts

Neither of these great Crane papers have been made for almost 20 years now and I've only found one source of the DB (converted into pad form) and none of the OM at all. Would like either but really prefer the Old Money. It came as stationery sets and was also sold separately in reams and envelopes. Wish I'd thought to buy myself a ream when I was buying sets for my Mom! The paper is water-marked "Old Money". Anyone have some they don't want anymore? Willing to buy but might also trade. PM me if you're interested. Thanks!

I had some Old Money years ago - one of the first things I bought from overseas. Still remember faxing my credit card details and order to Crane and Co. No such thing as paypal or any of that back then. I will rummage through the stationery cupboard and see if I can find any. I suspect it is all gone. Was a great sheet for FP.

Thamks Pete! Maybe I'll ask my Mom if she still has any... she can't write letters anymore.

 

Thanks Ehoh, the (DB) pads I mentioned are on eBay and appear to have been printed with a design. Also, I'm a little gun-shy with eBay...

I have a box of Crane "Old Money" - 20 sheets of stationery and 20 envelopes. There is a slight indentation (pen-point sized) in the top, left hand corner of each sheet, but otherwise all is pristine. Let me know if you are still interested.

I just stumbled on a box of Old Money note cards and envelopes at a garage sale. Stone Zebra, I sent you a PM.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
