ABOUT

PAYN’S ​STATIONERY

Originally established in the 1950's, Payn’s is ​one of the oldest surviving stationery stores ​in America.

In 2000, Sonny Han took over Payn’s from ​former owner Sung Kwak, who in turn took ​over after original owner Mr. Payn. You can ​read Sonny’s journey from teenage ​immigrant to successful business owner in ​Berkeleyside.

Payn’s Stationery is proud to be a member of ​the Berkeley and East Bay community. We’re ​here to help you with finding the perfect gift ​or greeting card, back-to-school shopping, ​office supplies, and much more! We also ​offer notary public services.

With support from our local community, ​Payn’s Stationery is still here to serve our ​loyal customers - hopefully for years to come.
