Crane & Co.
American excellence since the Republic's founding
Crane has supplied paper to the U.S. Treasury since 1879—the same paper used in American currency. Lettra stock features their signature deep texture, created through a proprietary felting process unchanged for over a century. The pronounced grain adds tactile authority to every piece, while the cotton base ensures archival permanence.

Printing Characteristics
Letterpress
The gold standard for letterpress. Deep texture accepts heavy impression, creating dramatic depth and shadow play.
Foil Stamping
Textured surface adds dimension to foil. Light catches multiple angles, creating dynamic visual interest.
Embossing
Texture contrasts beautifully with embossed areas. Creates subtle interplay between raised and textured surfaces.
Engraving
Requires skilled handling. Texture adds character to engraved lines but demands experienced craftsmanship.
