Don't you make them like before?

I've been using Strathmore albums as journals for over a decade; I use fountain pens and different types of ink, and it's important to me that the paper is thick enough that my text doesn't show through. Usually these books help, but this one (bought June 2019) is different. Has Strathmore changed his newspaper? Or was a fake/copycat version sent to me? These photos are inscribed with a Signo 207 gel pen.

Pros
  • Paper and Crafts
Cons
