Here’s a cool new line of handmade collectible notebooks, available a la carte or by subscription: Hebrew Type. They are part of a line of cards, prints and other items made by Enon Avital, inspired by the graphic design challenges of using the Hebrew alphabet. “Hebrew Type Books are hand made from scratch; printed, cut, … Continue reading Notebooks by Hebrew Type
Tipster David B. sent me the photo below of Moleskines for sale at his local Costco: These are 6-packs of 10 x 7.5″ lined cahiers in assorted colors. At $19.99 for six, it’s a pretty good deal– the full retail price is normally $19.95 for a 3-pack of this “extra-large” size, though you can also … Continue reading Moleskine Monday: Six-Packs at Costco
Here we have another Kickstarter project that I decided to support at a modest level. When I saw the design of the LatLon notebooks, I thought it was quite cool-looking, and an interesting concept. Each notebook has a letterpress printed cover featuring the contour lines of the elevation of an island or glacier or the … Continue reading Review: LatLon Notebooks

I decided to become a supporter at a modest level … Continue reading Review: Furrow Books Notebook

Zettel Notebooks are made in Berlin, and each cover is a tribute to a part … Continue reading Review and Giveaway: Zettel Notebooks

I was not familiar with Guided Products or their ReWrite brand of notebooks until they contacted me and sent some samples for review, so it was a pleasant discovery! I received quite a selection of samples. ReWrite notebooks come in 3 sizes, with ruled, plain, … Continue reading Review and Giveaway: Guided Rewrite Notebooks
I recently took a trip to Paris and Amsterdam. Searching for notebooks wasn’t the sole purpose of the trip, of course, but I did a better job than usual of preparing for the journey with some research on places to buy notebooks. In Amsterdam, I had less time to devote to stationery shopping, as I’d … Continue reading In Search of Notebooks: Paris and Amsterdam
I spotted this brand when I was in Paris– they have some very cute designs: See more at their website.
Can you judge a notebook by its cover? Perhaps! I was very excited to get these samples from Halaby Aero. The first time I saw these notebooks at Paper Presentation in NYC, I immediately thought they were cool. I have no day to day use for any of the airplane-related info on the covers, but … Continue reading Review and Giveaway: Halaby Aero Flightbook Notebooks
I reviewed a beautiful Paper Republic notebook over a year ago– that one was a small hardcover notebook with an elegant cover pattern. Now Paper Republic has branched off into something quite different, but also rather elegant: the Grand Voyageur travel notebook. The style of this notebook is hardly unique– like the Midori Traveler’s Notebook … Continue reading Review: Paper Republic Grand Voyageur
