Postalco
Postalco originated in Brooklyn, New York, but is based in Tokyo, Japan.
I visited them earlier in the year. Their logo; the carrier pigeon cleverly captures the utilitarian feel of a Post Office clerks notebook or 1950's College jotter.
Renowned for their craftsmanship and attention to detail they have re interpreted paper accessories and stationery.
This extends not only to the way things are made but also the way they are presented.
All items are handmade in Japan and many are unique due to that hand-made approach.
A range of Postalco’s notebooks, card cases and accessories are now available online and also in store at Crane Brothers Auckland and Wellington.
