Weston Diploma Paper now at Bostick & Sullivan

[roy]

Thank you for this generous offer.

 

[Dana Sullivan]

We'll cut some Diploma Parchment into 8"x10" when the next pallet of paper gets here, probably the middle of next week. I suspect pricing will be around $12 for a 25 sheet pack, possibly less.

Please note: Some people may receive the Lana Aquarelle 140lb Cold Press instead of the 140lb Hot Press, due to our stock being a little low. Both are great papers, the cold press has a rougher texture, though.

Wow, not too often you get something free that's of real value. Thank you so much. This made my day! I'll soon be ordering some chemicals.

APUG and this free offer, I just can't resist! Time for some alt process and googling, searching, and more red eye in the morning!

Thank you, B&S

Dana,
When will you have the kozo paper available ?

Dana,
When will you have the kozo paper available ?

We should have the new batch of Kozo in late this week or early next week.

Basically the heavy Kozo is priced in line with the COT-320, and the lighter weight is going to be about 20% less. The heavier paper is available in 25"x29" sheets or 12.5"x14.5" 1/4 sheets.

The lighter paper is going to be sold in full sheets only. It is quoted as being 21"x29", but with the deckled edges included, it is a full 22"x30". We don't feel it would be appropriate to send out smaller sheets that only have two deckled edges, so we will sell it in smaller quantities and let the customer cut it to size.

My brother Kevin is adding the new papers to the website, so as soon as he's done I'll let everyone know.

Got my sample today too. Even my Mom was impressed! Thanks B&S.

Got my sample yesterday (as well as an order for Carbon tissue). I can see why alot of alt process printers like the COT-320, will have to try it with Kallitype. The Kozo papers are beautiful - almost too attractive to use ;-) Any suggestions on processes?

 

[Scott Peters]

I got mine too! Thank you. Can't wait to try them....

 

[Jeremy]

i'll be testing out the kozo papers soon and if i get something good i'll try to remember to bring it to APIS with me!

It was a sad day today. FedEx Ground service destroyed 1000 sheets of 28"x34" Weston Diploma.

 

[Colin Graham]

That is terrible Dana, I was curious about what did happen...I was all set to order some but ordered some of the Kozo paper to try out instead. I assume FedEx is making everything right?

 

[JLP]

Sorry to hear that, it is a great paper.
Maybe Brown would do better? At least i think!

It looks like the distributor didn't ship it properly. Normally paper comes on a pallet, and is delivered by a freight service. This time they sent it FedEx Ground service, without a pallet. A box of 500 sheets weighs 125 pounds, but it can't support it's own weight.

One box was completely missing, and the inner paper wrappers were gone, scattering all 500 sheets. Footprints, tire tread marks, mysterious red streaks; a real multimedia masterpiece. They had tried to gather it up and put the paper in somewhat of a pile, but it was almost comical.

The second "box" was still partially intact, but the inner wrappers looked like they had burst when the box was dropped on it's side. None of it looked remotely salvageable. We refused the shipment, so it's FedEx's liability at this point.

Our paper distributor has already freighted us another 1000 sheets at their expense, so it's just a matter of wasted time. We were just shocked at how poorly it was shipped, considering we've never had that problem before.

The Kozo papers are selling nicely, and we're getting great feedback. Has anyone tried them out yet from the sample packs?

Hi Dana,

I got my sample pack yesterday. Thanks so much. I may have some questions about the papers and will PM you.

Regards, Art.

I still haven't gotten my sample pack. Hopefully it is in today's mail/fedex/whatever delivery method used.
