Updates to my paper post "From Blue Jeans to Onion Skins"

I noticed a lot of hits on the post below. I have extensively revised it especially as many links were defunct and  I added new information. I hope it helps you on your quest to find and buy the finest papers the planet has to offer before they disappear forever.

One stellar paper-maker not mentioned in my blog is Cave Papers.
