Over 200 years ago, Johannot paper was considered synonymous with quality. It is on it that Rambler Press books such as Podróż do Turek y Egiptu and Między Konstytucją a Targowicą. Korespondencja i piscie polityczna Michał Jerzy Poniatowski z lat 1791–1793 are printed. This choice is not accidental—we are simply continuing excellent traditions.
