This archival, hand-sewn journal/sketchbook is made from 100 gsm, antique 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 1945 aeronautical chart showing the border between the USA and Canada that has been over-written with a 1920s speech given by Amelia Earhart, the text of which is located at the Library of Congress. 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 an early 20th century watch fob from the United States Post Office.
