Many of the following resources were utilized in the creation of this html document. The webmaster is particularly indebted to Dard Hunter's Papermaking ~ The History And Technique Of An Ancient Craft, which, it would appear, served as the primary source for quite a number of the listed websites. The websites included here are primarily ones which contain information pertaining to the history or creation of watermarks, as compared to websites for papermills which simply advertise their own watermarked paper. Please note: The websites included in this list, and the links to them, were active as of January, 2010.
