This archival, hand-sewn journal/sketchbook is made from 100 gsm, carmel-colored Hahnemühle Ingres mouldmade paper from Germany, sewn with Irish linen thread in the linked stitch pattern that dates back at least to the Ancient Copts.  It allows the book to lay open easily to any page.

This book’s endbands are brown and yellow cotton, and its bookmark is goatskin.  The book is half-leathered in top grain split calfskin, and the boards are wrapped in cork veneer.

 Treasure binding began with monks in the 6th Century who would encrust volumes with jewels. During the Renaissance, there was a resurgence in treasure binding. This is a contemporary revival of the treasure binding in which a lucky charm has been embedded in the cover of this book.  

 The talisman in this book is a mid-20th-century good luck token from Jesse James’ hideout at the Meramec Caverns in Stanton, Missouri.

This book is roughly 6.5 x 10” with more than 150 caramel colored pages.

Keep on riding, riding, riding,
Frank and Jesse James.
Keep on riding, riding, riding,
‘Til you clear your names.”
