Product Description
Strathmore Paper Company began St. Patrick’s Day in 1892, when Horace Moses opened the Mittineague paper mill in West Springfield, MA. Ever since then, Strathmore has been a leading supplier of fine art papers under the belief that better paper makes better art. Strathmore provides artists of all levels with one of the widest ranges of quality surfaces for producing beautiful works of art, no matter the choice of medium. Listening to the needs of artists and providing inspiration, education, and innovating new products is at the core of what matters to Strathmore. The 300 Series was developed for quick studies and for the practice of techniques with any media, as well as final artwork by beginning or student artists. The 300 Series Watercolor paper pad contains 12 sheets of heavyweight, student grade, watercolor paper with a cold press surface. Best suited for experimenting and practicing techniques when heavier washes and reworking are required. The surface resists fiber pilling even when lifting color or scrubbing. Available in three sizes and in wire or tape binding – sizes include 9x12 inches, 11x15 inches and 18x24 inches.

However, others say that they make sure that the pages is the correct size, it holds more than 12 sheets, and that it doesn't have the most convenient size.
"...The paper won't take a ton of punishment just fyi. And it doesn't hold as much water (for all you watercolor beginners) but if you want to play..." Read more
"...best part is that it's a stack of papers and not a spiral bound book, no cutting away or tearing away that wrinkles the paper." Read more
"...concerning this product is that you make sure that the pages are the correct size, as I simply assumed, from years of using larger tablets from this..." Read more

The price-to-product ratio is a bit high, so I do recommend this paper for finished products, and Canson Watercolor paper for practice.
