JOURNALS

Our smythe sewn journals represent classic book making at its finest. Combining superb paper with the highest quality binding, these journals are designed to last. The text stock is unique in the marketplace, with its rich cream coloring and laid patterning. Not only does it take ink beautifully, but we have it manufactured for extra opacity to minimize back-to-back show through. It is of course acid free, making it archival quality. The signatures are smythe sewn, eliminating the splitting at the spine and the sudden scattering of pages that has meant the end of so many treasured journals. One piece styles are matte-laminated for durability, and the all-natural covers use only the finest European-made cloth.

Catch the greatest English novelists of our time in their original drafts. Each cover reproduces a manuscript page of some of the world's finest literature in the author's own hand. Look carefully and you'll find the name that Hardy almost gave to literature's most tragic heroine.
