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 was developed by the ancient Copts. This stitch allows the book to lie open easily at any page.
The book’s endbands and bookmark are French goatskin. Its boards are wrapped in a 1959 map of the American southwest, and the book is half-bound in Brillianta book cloth from the Netherlands.
The talisman in this book is a 1950 United States “wheat” penny. California became a state in 1850, and this penny was minted a century later.
