Excerpt:
“The mark to be found in every sheet of Crane’s Paper likewise carries a message–a message of quality and craftsmanship, of the use of cotton and linen fibers only in the making of paper these 146 years. It is to be found in the Crane watermark which reveals itself when the paper is held against the light. It is our mark of pride in the making of these fine papers for personal, social and business use.”
