WINTER 2024 QUARTERLY EDITION Vintage 3-Packs
These Pair Nicely
Good as Gold
Our 65th limited Quarterly Edition for the winter of 2024 is the “Vintage” Edition. We revisited some of our favorite materials, details, and production processes to create a brand-new and old-fashioned 3-Pack.
For the covers, we have chosen a 100# “Royaltone” stock from the French Paper Company. It is named “Monarch Red,” but leans more towards the color of fine wine. Perhaps a 2012 Willamette Pinot Noir? The stock features a lovely linen texture that plays well with the embossed “Metallic Antique” gold ink. The inside covers are printed with a geometric pattern that suggests the end-papers of a classic hardcover book.
Interior pages are “dot-ruled” using “Faded Antique Gold” ink on an off-white stock from Domtar. They’re also perforated for easy removal. The staples are also gold. Natch.
That’s a Wrap
Start a year-long subscription with the winter release and you’ll receive two “Vintage” Edition 3-Packs. Subscribers also get a sheet of gift wrapping paper featuring the interior pattern of the covers. Since you’re getting two packs, we thought perhaps you’d like to gift one to that person on your list with the most discriminating taste.
Subscribers will receive their first shipment in our special 2024 Subscriber Box by Jen Blazovich right away. Then get the Spring, Summer, and Fall editions, with free USA shipping, as they are released. Remember, subscribers also automagically save 10% when shopping on our site. Find more information and see previous quarterly releases here.
Subscribers are the very heart of Field Notes. Your faith inspires us to be ambitious and take chances with what we make next. Just wait, you’ll see. If we can pull them off, Spring and Summer are going to be amazing.
