From the Dead Englishmen Wrapping Paper
From the Dead Englishmen is a cheeky name for a wrapping paper designed to play with the gift receiver's sense of touch just as much as a comforting old book of classic literature, while visually appealing to the reader's knowledge of classical motifs.
This wrapping paper is specifically designed for the literary snobs and book lovers. Everyone has that one person in their life (or is that person) who gives books as gifts before anything else.
Mocking the general population of classic literature as old, dead Englishmen, this matte black wrapping paper is patterned with a rose motif and smooth to the touch. The smooth and rough paper textures of the label and the paper itself entice the sense of touch upon receiving the gifted book just as much as it will when leafing through it's worn pages.
