I'm sorry to hear about your Dad.

Actually the last day they are to be delivered is Saturday.

There are a billion types of paper out there, laid, small format, large format.

I particularly like the Ruscombe Mills Pastelle colors, the Moulin de Larroque, printing and drawing papers. I think the Magnani Annigoni would work for you as well. Order the catalogue, there are so many.

The Twinrocker has samples of it's papers posted on it's website.
They have a package of samples they can send you as well. Be forewarned, these will be a bit of a price jump from wrapping paper.

I love Rives, Central art will send you 4-5 free samples. You might like their tan. It's less expensive than the others and a great paper. It comes as big as 311/2" x 47"

Hope to see you at the Copley.
