NOTEBOOKS | BIRCH BARK 3-PACK
Proudly designed by Field Notes in Chicago, IL. Printed by the good people of The Graphic Arts Studio, LLC, Barrington, Ill.
Our 60th Quarterly Limited Edition, for the of Fall 2023, is “Birch Bark.” It’s as simple, elegant, and austere as its name-sake tree.
The genus Betula is known for its white, papery bark, evoked here by speckled 110# Mohawk Loop “Snow” cover stock, heavily debossed with just a hint of warm gray. Bright green birch leaves turn radiant yellow in the autumn. When the leaves are gone in the winter, with snow on the ground, a birch stand becomes colorless, a perfect subject for dreamy black-and-white photos.
These three seasonal stages are echoed in the green, yellow, and black staples of the books in each 3-Pack, and also in the graph colors of the 60# Finch Opaque body paper. This is a simple, practical edition; a successor to centuries of notes, proclamations and lists inscribed on birch bark.
