ROCK SCISSOR PAPER

It's no coincidence that Rock Scissor Paper's stationery evokes a certain sense of vintage cool. A peek around the our Los Angeles studio will clue you into where our passions and influences come from. We've been collecting vintage furniture, pottery, bar ware, textiles and ephemera since before we could drive.

In 1993, we began Rock Scissor Paper, a stationery company that draws its influences from the past. Our company began when we noticed a need for something different in the greeting card market, a market that traditionally caters to women over 55. We saw an opportunity to create stationery that would appeal to men and women alike and that employed a sense of nostalgia without relying on overused images such as 1950's drive-ins and poodle skirts. Instead, we chose to focus on everyday objects and imagery that were part of our lives growing up... that cool pattern of formica on the coffee shop table, that strange lamp that sat on the living room table for years, a scrap of hidden wallpaper behind some boxes in the bedroom closet. To us, these "treasures" from the past evoke nostalgia for a time when people's lives seemed much simpler. It was an era that looked to the future with optimism and excitement.

Instead of merely reproducing things from the past, we choose to reinterpret the images and objects into stationery that represents a new modernism. "Retro" has become the language of cool, working its way into everything from advertising to fashion. Since 1993, our line of stationery has grown to include greeting cards, note cards, thank you cards, holiday cards, journals, invitations, phone books and photo albums. Our products can be found throughout the world in cool stores, museums and car washes, and now, on the world wide web.
