At one time the United States used three different paper sizes. Government committees came up with separate standards, 8" x 10 1/2" for the government, 8 1/2" x 11" (letter size) and 8 1/2" x 14" (legal size) for everyone else. In the early 1980s President Reagan proclaimed that 8 1/2" x 11" (letter size) is the official national standard. Although beneficial to many industries it also was negative to others.

In today's world, letter size documents are widely used and are by far the most common. The demand for legal size documents and products, although popular at one time, is slowly declining. Specific business industries, such as the legal profession, are still dependent on legal size documents and are finding it extremely difficult to locate products to accommodate their needs.

To address this problem, Damiano's new products include an assortment of legal size leather zippered and non-portfolios. Damiano will soon expand the line to include legal size leather binders.

Damiano Designer Accessories, Ltd., a privately owned company was established in 1995. Damiano's trademark is "Go Naked to the Office."
