Circle Polis
This archival, hand-sewn journal/sketchbook is made from 100 gsm, white Hahnemühle Ingres mouldmade paper from Dassel, Germany, made on the same site since 1584. It is sewn with Irish linen thread in the linked stitch pattern that was developed by the ancient Copts. This stitch allows the book to lay open easily at any page.
The book’s endbands and bookmark are goatskin. Its boards are wrapped in a 1950s Indiana highway map. The Indianapolis beltway, I-465, was built between 1959 and 1961, and I-69 north of Indianapolis was undertaken in 1967. This map pre-dates both. The book is half-leathered in Alran French goatskin that was processed at Rocky Mountain Leather Supply in Utah.
The talisman in this book is a 1971 Indianapolis sesquicentennial commemorative coin featuring the Soldiers and Sailors Monument at the center of the city.
