This archival, hand-sewn journal/sketchbook is made from 80 gsm Mohawk Superfine archival paper stitched with Irish linen thread in the linked pattern that dates back to the ancient Copts. This stitch allows the book to lay open easily at any page.
This book’s endbands are green and yellow cotton, and its bookmark is green satin ribbon. The book is half-wrapped in green Buckram, and its boards are covered in yellow silk moire book cloth.
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 journal/sketchbook is a 1930 award for 85 bushels of corn toward the 100 Bushel Corn Club of Indiana from the Indiana Corn Growers Association. Corn averages 112 ears to a bushel, making 85 bushels equal to nearly 10,000 ears of corn. That’s a lot of shucking.
This book is roughly 6 x 9” with more than 150 blank pages.
