(Text) 'How eight eminent designers fell in love with a sheet of paper... And an envelope.
This whole affair began when we asked Herb Lubalin to help us create and promote a new designer-oriented writing paper to supplement Gilbert Bond, the leading 25% cotton content bond in the United States.
Herb advised the Gilbert Paper Company technicians on designer's special paper needs. Their combined efforts resulted in the creation of Gilbert Writing, a versatile 25% cotton content grade that offers superb reproductive quality.
Graphic designers will love the unique features of Gilbert Writing. Like the rich Wove texture or the narrow chainmark traditional Laid pattern. And the wallet flap style envelope, long preferred and sought after by designers, is standard with Gilbert Writing as well as the conventional style flap.'
