You may also want to try a local letterpress printer and buy some paper from them. They will probably have some stock left over from previous jobs. They can cut it down for you as well if you need it. Hi IV,

But how do you get this paper?! I letterpress on the side and have only used the lettra paper since I'm having a really hard time finding anything else that woks well with letterpress. When i got the Crane's Palette I was so excited to try printing on the colored stock. But when I tried to order it, the paper comes only in 24.6" x 35.6" and 100 page cartons! For a small side business, this is such a huge quantity! The crane's palette is such a tease! I love the list you have compiled! But how do you get this paper?!
