Mrs. John L. Strong at Watson Kennedy

Established in New York City in 1929, Mrs. John L. Strong hand engraved stationery is regarded as some of the very finest in the world. A new shipment arrived the other day to refresh our existing stock, which we have carried for many years. The iconic gloriously thick stock along with the beautiful images, many created many years ago, makes this a truly special gift. One to give or to gift yourself.

I quite happily played around in the display case yesterday, whistling while I worked surrounded by all that glorious paper. From notecards to tablets, we are so pleased to offer such glorious offerings for your letter/note writing.

Speaking of letter writing, oh my word, the cards & letter just keep arriving daily–I can’t thank you all enough! With it being such an emotional week, they really have been even more welcome. For those of you just reading, I had asked readers a few weeks ago when the blog hit its 5th anniversary to send me a note so I could have it as a remembrance to mark the occasion. So many of you have and it has brought me so much joy. But it is not too late if you have not yet sent one. I would be delighted, thrilled really, to keep receiving them for the next month, or even longer, as there is no time limit on happiness. Insert very large smile. If so incline, to:
