For Summer 2010, FIELD NOTES COLORS celebrates the 50 great U.S. states with COUNTY FAIR, our seventh quarterly installment.

Each COUNTY FAIR 3-Pack highlights an individual U.S. state, with one memo book each in the colors of 1st, 2nd and 3rd place County Fair ribbons; blue, red and yellow. They’re printed on 100-lb. linen cover stock and all three feature metallic gold printing and 48 pages of graph paper with light blue/grey lines inside. The back covers feature a bevy of meticulously-researched state facts and figures. Check out Alaska’s cover here (pdf).
