The Black Cat Graphics paper sale was a fine way to spend a morning – politely elbowing Providence’s bookbinders, screen printers, illustrators and comic artists for a chance at cheap, quality paper that you only have to dust off a little bit.

Real paper. Real people.

Unreal.

There’s Jim, foisting unneeded things into people’s hands.

And below is my haul.

Half a carton of much-contested Mohawk Superfine. Gold boxes. Weird Halloween thingies. The most beautiful blue laid envelopes in the world. Other envelopes. Certificate-like paper. Plastic sleeves. Boring and also exciting 8.5×11 colored paper. 50 sheets of teal coverstock not seen here. Plus a box of giant mailers for Craftland. Plus stuff that thinkstare snagged. ALL FOR 35 AMERICAN DOLLARS.

I remain another satisfied sucker.
