Letterheads! I love old stationery. Love it love it love it. This is a nice collection, some from the famous, or infamous. My favorite.

Oh, I LOVE Johnny Cash's.

How about that Ray Bradbury - anticipates Tim Burton by a lot, doesn't it?

great find!

Fantasia is my favorite. Thanks for sharing!

I guess I'm a snotty European. Because I fail to find charm in a letterhead that encompasses blurbs like on the sleeve a book. But then I never liked Harpo Marx very much.
Johnny Cash' reminds me of covers of Lucky Luke comic books.
I like that Brooks Brothers had the Golden Fleece in their stationary.

My dad used to snitch and collect letterhead from various offices, which is how I got a letter from the governor of Michigan when I was 8.

(We lived in Delaware.)

I don't get how the fish can be the "i" in Pixar.

I love how--as your fame rises--your letterhead becomes more plain.

Very cool. Gives me the willies that Adolf Hitler's letterhead is number 2 in popularity, though. (And the letterhead does as well.)
