Traditionally, men have used the correspondence card over folded note cards for their communications. It is, however, important to include several pieces in your stationery wardrobe so you’ll have the appropriate options within reach and can get your thank you note out quickly and without delay. Quality stationery adds a weight of sincerity to your words. If you’re writing a love letter, a sympathy note, a thank you card, or a letter of congratulations, only the finest stationery will do!

CLASSIC CORRESPONDENCE NOTE CARDS
The flat notecard is by far the most popular style of stationery for men. All stationery in our Classic Correspondence collection is letterpress printed on 4.5″ x 6.25″ paper. These notecards are available in letterpress and engraving and you can add a wide selection of embellishments such as edge paint and envelope liners. We recommend a design with a full name imprint or a 3 letter monogram.
CALLING CARDS FOR MEN
The formal “Mister Card” is used by a young man after age 12 or an adult male, regardless of marital status. “Contact Cards” are a modern form of calling card and most often include personal contact information. They are particularly helpful for those who are often in social networking situations, travel frequently, or do not have a business card.
