Envelopes That Don't Skimp On Glue


frotz

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know of a brand of envelope that doesn't skimp on the glue in some way? I've been stuck with #10 and #6-3/4 envelopes that have a 1/2" strip of glue along the edge of the flap, but there are big gaps in the strips. I just now went to Office Depot for some more #10 envelopes. On the website these were said to be "fully gummed", but this time around the glue is only 1/4" wide. So, tomorrow I'll be taking this box back.

 

Can I get some recommendations for decent quality envelopes that don't skimp on glue?

I've had good luck with Clairefontaine Triomphe envelopes (I use the A5 Triomphe pad for correspondence) - not sure if the sizes they carry will work for you but worth a shot.

      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

      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
