Review: Buy Buy Buy - Beautiful finish and perfect color. Extremely happy with my purchase and product was shipped very quickly.
Review: Exquistite - I have a project that requires quality archival type paper; Southworth's paper meets my requirements. I am perfectly satisfied. I have ordered this product three times and will order more as my project continues. I started the project in June of 2023 using a different paper. After six months I found the paper was not adequate; I restarted the project using Southworth's Cotton Business paper (archival) and will continue using this paper.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great paper for someone serious about being professional
*by C***Y on December 15, 2012*

I was looking for a new ream of paper to last me though the year for school and various projects. I was looking for a Bright White paper that would exceed 97 brightness that I could use for presentations. Well during my search, Amazon recommended the Southworth 13C 100% Cotton Business Paper. It immediately caught my attention since I'm studying photography and wood pulp is a big no no in the art world, and the words "100% Cotton", Lignin Free" and "Acid Free" are a huge YES! I went to the Southworth website to read more on their process and quality, and then decided to buy a ream. Once it was delivered, I opened it up and felt the paper and checked the watermark. I then printed a cover page for my portfolio and compared my previous paper to this paper. I was astounded at the level of detail this paper was able to produce. The blacks were "Black", not washed out black, not grey, but Black! Just that alone shows that this paper will be able to produce true rich colors without a washed out look. I can also use this paper for many other things like covering my photographs for storage so the paper will take the elements, and not my work. I can also use this for model release forms so that they last longer and give the client a feel of prestigeness.
