No, rediscovered stock, that was there. I'm use to the stock being
sorted by color. The biz cards weren't. They are now.
Up to Kristen, as Press Shop Manager if she wants to buy the box from
you.
What did it cost?
Hmmm, has the proprietor recently brought the store?
I've known Gail and her deceased parents since '67, who started
University Stationery long before I came to MIT.

Did you just buy stock? I happened to need to go to university stationary
and so took
the liberty of buying a box of them for either myself or the printshop if
the printshop wants them.
I also told the proprietor that we have a letterpress, which he was not
aware of, so we might
simply want to put some effort into establishing a relationship with him so
he knows to keep stocking
cardstock.
