Yamamoto Paper Champion A4 Writing Paper

Once the domain of architects and blueprint wizards, diazo copying (or blueprinting, for those partial to nostalgia) demands a paper that’s almost ghostly in its translucence—yet resilient enough to withstand handling. Mitsubishi’s Champion Copy manages this delicate balancing act with aplomb.

Crafted at the historic Takasago mill in Hyōgo prefecture using time-honoured equipment, this A4 paper delivers high see-through quality without the usual fragility. It performs beautifully across diazo, letterpress, and offset printing techniques. And for those with a fondness for fountain pens—it dries swiftly, holds colour brilliantly, and resists bleed-through like a seasoned pro.
