Wednesday Winners

Thanks for all the “Today is Wednesday” orders from yesterday, when all day long it was Wednesday. We’re packing them up, adding the special free 2-Packs, and shipping them out as fast as we can. Thirty random orders are also receiving a rare, long-sold-out “End Papers” Pack, and here they are. – Sep. 2nd, 2021

Tom Petty Was Right

The waiting is the hardest part. For us too. The production of our Spring Quarterly Edition is complicated and involves quite a few steps. It’s all in the works and looks amazing. We can’t wait to make them public and send them on their way. – Apr. 13th, 2021

A Lot in the Works

OK, there’s A LOT in the works right now. We have our FIFTIETH QUARTERLY RELEASE in production, plus a sweet EXCLUSIVE ITEM for subscribers to go along with that. – Mar. 3rd, 2021

Pressing Matters

Let’s call this a virtuous circle. A magazine we were not aware of from the UK wrote a lovely illustrated piece about our “United States of Letterpress” Edition and documentary. They were nice enough to send us a copy. Which we loved. In fact, we loved the magazine from cover to cover. – Feb. 12th, 2021

“What Font is That?”

As we were on press with Field Notes’ National Parks Series E, Jim had the idea to make a water-transfer decal based on park signage, typesetting “America’s Best Idea”—paraphrasing a Wallace Stegner quote — in the rustic script typeface found on such signs. – Aug. 27th, 2020

Practical Applications for Now

Our online shop is open for business, but practically all of us, like many of you, are currently working from home. We decided to come up with a set of Practical Applications that would be appropriate if we were making a new Field Notes edition to go along with our current situation. – Apr. 8th, 2020

Checking Them Multiple Times, or at Least Twice

We are lucky to have been included in a wide variety of holiday gift lists this year. So, to return the favor, here’s a quick list of lists. Perhaps you’ll find inspiration here, and just the right thing for everybody on your own list. We’re psyched to be in such good company. – Dec. 3rd, 2019

What’s in a Name?

One of the most important (and fun) parts of creating any Quarterly Edition is naming it. Sometimes the name comes first and inspires the creative process. Other times the name emerges from the design. In rare cases the name is so obvious and appropriate that the working title never changes. This looked to be one of those cases. – Nov. 21st, 2019

Lost and Found in Translation

We come across many reviews of our products online and frequently they’re in languages that we need to read via machine translation. Sometimes the results, like this from the Slovakian site Firotour, are charming, if a bit odd. – Oct. 19th, 2018
