This archival, hand-sewn journal/sketchbook is made from 100 gsm, antique white 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 blue and white cotton, and its bookmark is goatskin. Its spine is covered split French goatskin from Rocky Mountain Leather Supply in Utah, and its boards are wrapped in a 1987 CG-20 aeronautical chart, showing Indianapolis, Louisville, Terre Haute, and Evansville, Indiana.
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 an early 20th Century transit token for the Indiana Interurban Railway.
This book is approximately 6.5 x 10” with a few more than 150 blank pages.
