Shorthand

Shorthand Shorthand is a little store in the heart of Highland Park specializing in beautiful supplies for your desk. We love stationery, we think you will too.

In 2016 letterpress print shop Iron Curtain Press expanded with a brick and mortar stationery store in North East Los Angeles, we call it Shorthand. Our mission is to feature simple and beautiful desk and office supplies; from inexpensive to luxury, from the serious craftsperson to the youngest artist

the sign on the door at all three stores today. we appreciate our customers and look forward to seeing you tomorrow. standing together in the face of brutality and a clear disregard for our constitution is something worth sacrificing a day of sales for. our whole team will still be paid today, because this is right. no one said sacrifice would be easy. - rosanna

We are excited to offer two different dates for notebook embossing in October. October 12th (yes! this Saturday!) we'll be operating the embossing machine in Highland Park, and October 27th we'll have the machine going in Larchmont Village.​​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​​Purchase a notebook in store, or bring your current favorite notebook in, choose your name or initials, and we'll create a custom little beauty for you, right on the spot.

We have tons of planners in store right now too - so perhaps you'll find your planner for 2025 and add your customizing details right then and there. (This is the one I chose for next year, I can't wait to start using it!!)

It's going to be so fun to have you in the shop and can't wait to see what you make!
