WRITING PAPER & STATIONERY

This is the kind of journal Fitzgerald started writing The Great Gatsby in. Well, we can’t actually vouch for that, but this classic faux leather journal, perfect for a coat pocket, has that vintage jazzy feel. Measures 4" x 6" with soft brown leather covers, and has a string-spine that holds (50) blank cream-colored pages. A small, elegant pen is included, with built-in holder, of course. Go on, Nick—tell us all about Daisy and Klipspringer.

Getting-on-the-grid is the new going-off-the-grid, according to our mascot, Jarvis, who has a bird’s-eye view of such cultural trends.

Each sheet has (5) squares per inch, which Jarvis says is perfect for working your way back into society. Made in USA.

To boldly write notes where no man (or not that many) have written notes before. Yes, Trekkie- Surpies, we have Star Trek notebooks!

Not sure how you’re supposed to get any journaling done with something so snazzy, but this 6” x 8” sequined notebook is probably better for your psyche than any diary entry, anyway.

Has about (80) lined pages with space at the top right for dates, so it’s perfect as a diary. Or for noting the catch of the day.

Measures 5-1/2" x 8-1/2". Jot down your thoughts and musings (you know you’ve got some good ones) or they might be gone forever.
