Love articles like this but they always appear after I have had my (maybe) once in a lifetime trip to that city.

Very interesting article with links to different shops in NYC that they rate to be the best for stationery. A number of letterpress shops.

Thanks for posting this. I work in Manhattan but live in NJ &, like many other of the work-a-day working stiffs who commute in, I don't always get a chance to explore all the nooks & crannies of the City. This is a nice timesaving resource thanks.

 

I have been to both Paper Access & Jam Paper & they're both fun shops if you like stationary. Paper Access is a large store with a great variety of papers, in bulk & packaged, along with pads, notebooks, art papers in bulk & pads, Filofax, & various other stationary-related accessories & goodies. They used to mail a catalog. Jam is aptly named & is an overstock place. It is jam-packed with good paper at 1/3 to 1/2 off including Crown Mill & Strathmore. They too used to send around a catalog but now only have their website. If anyone's visiting the City & is a stationary fan, it's well worth your trip down to both stores. In good weather they're in walking distance of each other being only about 3 blocks apart.

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
