While browsing around on Leuchtturm’s website a while back, I came across these interesting items: stamp albums! At first, I didn’t know what they were, as the heading calls them “Travel Stockbooks.” I love the idea of a special notebook to safely hold stamps, in a format matching their other notebooks. The details: - 2 sizes, 24 pages: Large 9×12″ (A4) with 9 glassine strips per page or Small 6×9″ (A5) with 6 glassine strips per page - Premium black leatherette cover with rounded corners … Continue reading Leuchtturm 1917 Albums for Collectors→
I hate it when I see cute dated planners. There’s only so many planners one person can use each year, so it’s much harder to justify buying lots of them! I already have three Nolty diaries for 2019. But here’s another Japanese planner that looks intriguing: Mark’s Souple EDiT Daily Planner 2019 – B7 – … Continue reading Mark’s Souple Planner 2019→
The folks at FM-31 were kind enough to send me a sample pack of their new line of notebooks. Let’s take a look!

I see so many interesting notebook stories on other blogs and yet I never get around to doing a link round-up on this site! Trying to get better about that… so here are a few things that caught my eye recently: The Gentleman Stationer reviews a new brand of notebooks called Kunisawa: “…a new venture … Continue reading Other People’s Pages: Notebook Links→
This notebook was a random Amazon find. I’d never heard of the brand Superior Maker and figured it was some Chinese manufacturer marketing cheap knock-off notebooks directly. Their products, which also include lint rollers and rubber doorstops, are indeed made in China, but the company is actually based in New Zealand. Other than that, there … Continue reading Review: Superior Maker Notebook→
Seawhite of Brighton is a British brand of art supplies targeted at the educational market. I’ve only seen their products in stores once, when I was in London. But I did find this sketchbook available on Amazon, and decided to give it a try.. As noted in my post Size Matters: When A6 Isn’t A6, … Continue reading Review: Seawhite Travel Journal→
I love getting the chance to review new (or new to me) brands of notebooks. I had not heard of iScholar when they contacted me to offer these free samples, but I was interested to see what they had to offer, especially as I probably don’t give enough attention to notebooks meant for school use. … Continue reading Review & Giveaway: iScholar Notebooks→

I myself was obsessed with notebooks before I even knew how to write– I recently found an … Continue reading Notebook Addiction at Different Ages→
