economical Lettra source?
Do you have a good source for Crane Lettra in bulk for card-making?
I’ve done some comparison shopping and so far, the most economic I’ve come across is www.neenahpaper.com (with free shipping on orders of $250 or more) at 26 x 40 parent sheets for $2.54 each in a 100 sheet package. 16 cards per parent sheet works out to 15.9 cents, shipped, per A6 card,. Or, if I’m willing to go with slighter smaller than standard A6 cards, I can get the 23 x 35 sheets for 13.2 cents per card, shipped. I feel like I could do better though…
(www.letterpresspaper.com does have slightly cheaper prices but is more expensive with shipping.)
Thanks!
(I forgot to mention, I’m looking at 110 lb.)
Oh, and the ‘per-card’ prices that I list are just for the A6 quantity of paper itself, not cut or scored.
I would not buy from Neenah directly. You should be able to do better through a stocking distributor locally if your in a major metro area. Neenah list their distis on their site.
Learning - I missed whether they are doing the cutting or not, but I have purchased from them and had the local offset company cut for me and the charge for cutting is about 20% that of Neenah. Hope this helps.

Lists 26x40 300gsm Lettra at $2.40 per sheet. Not sure what their shipping price would be to you.
letterpresspaper.com is cheaper if ordering 100 sheets or more though.
Letterpresspaper.com is selling Lettra in pre-cut A2’s and A6’s now as well. Folded cards will be available in a month or so.
I was all excited about the pre-cut A2… but yeah, need half-sheets for folding cards, not quarter-sheets.
