THE SEASIDE COLLECTION: NEW FOR SUMMER 2007

NEW YORK CITY, May 2007 — Dempsey & Carroll, the esteemed New York stationer, celebrates the Summer of 2007 with four new designs, The Seaside Collection:

• Sand Dollar – in light brown, with sea mist blue tissue envelope liner
• Whale – in royal blue, with a sunflower yellow tissue envelope liner
• Palm Tree – in kiwi green and brown, with a kiwi green tissue envelope liner
• Flamingo – in bright pink and brown, with soft pink tissue envelope liner

Playful and iconic, all four designs are new additions to the extensive library of Dempsey & Carroll’s engraving dies. The Seaside Collection continues the company’s commitment to traditional engraving techniques, the finest quality paper and timeless design.

“These designs capture the essence of summer – everything you associate with warm weather and the beach,” said Jonathan Arnold, General Manager of Dempsey & Carroll. “A hostess thank-you note will be even more cheerful on a Flamingo card, and the Whale is perfect for a hand-written party invitation.”

The Seaside Collection is packaged in boxed sets of 10 cards of a single motif and 10 matching envelopes, lined in complementary tissue. These new motif designs have been hand-engraved and printed on crisp white 3-ply 100%-cotton stock. Each set is packaged in distinctive blue boxes and has a suggested retail price of $45.00.

The Seaside Collection is available immediately through selected dealers nationwide and through Dempsey & Carroll at its New York City showroom, 136 East 57th Street, 4th Floor; at its website, www.dempseyandcarroll.com; and by telephone at 877 750 1878.
