220 lb paper

Does anyone besides Crane make a 220lb weight paper? Does anyone make it in colors? Thanks!

Reich Savoy makes an even thicker cover (236#), which comes in colors that are comparable to the Lettra line (shades of white, no colors).

Crane used to make a range of beautiful colored 134# cover papers in their (discontinued) Palette line. It’s thinner than Lettra 220 lb., but still nice and dense. I purchase it from Paper-papers.com.

Here are some letterpress papers in heavy weights, all in various whites

Arturo: 600gsm (220lb Cover)
Lettra: 600gsm (220lb)
Legion Bamboo: 530gsm (196lb)

Rising Museum Board 2ply: 500gsm (185lb)
Lanaquarelle 640gsm (237lb)
Saunders Waterford 640gsm (237lb)
Acquerello by Magnani 550gsm (203lb)

For heavyweight color:
Colorplan/Colorscope 350gsm (130lb cover) is available in 50 colors.

Is there any distributor in America who sells small quantities of Colorplan/Colorscope?

I’m looking for grey paper in a thicker weight. Thanks!
