Ah yes, you can get watercolor paper that is in a block style...it is gummed together on all four sides, and at the top you can insert a blunt knife into it, and release it from the block of other paper its attached too...easiest way I can describe that, sorry!

Anyway, it helps when your painting in watercolor, because it doesn't warp the paper, it stays flat :)
