Airmail Pad

Designed to accompany Airmail Envelopes, this letter pad by LIFE Stationery includes 50 sheets of thin, feather-resistant, plain paper for everyday correspondence. 

The thin, translucent paper is similar to tracing paper and pays homage to the early days of airmail, when lightweight onionskin paper was used to save every gram of weight possible. Included in the pad is a lined guide sheet designed for placing underneath the writing paper to ensure perfectly aligned handwriting. The guide sheet is printed with both vertical and horizontal lines for writing in either orientation.
