Field Notes Vintage Notebooks (Set 3)

Description

GOOD AS GOLD

Field Notes’s 65th limited Quarterly Edition for the winter of 2024 is the Vintage Edition. They revisited some of our favorite materials, details, and production processes to create a brand-new and old-fashioned 3-Pack.

For the covers, Field Notes have chosen a 100# Royaltone stock from the French Paper Company. It is named Monarch Red, but leans more towards the color of fine wine. Perhaps a 2012 Willamette Pinot Noir? The stock features a lovely linen texture that plays well with the embossed Metallic Antique gold ink. The inside covers are printed with a geometric patternthat suggests the end-papers of a classic hardcover book.

Interior pages are dot-ruled using Faded Antique Gold ink on an off-white stock from Domtar. Theyre also perforated for easy removal. The staples are also gold. Natch.
