Paperblanks Flexis New York Rose Midi Softcover Journal

Summary The Paperblanks New York Rose Midi Softcover Journal is a 4.75 x 6.75 inch journal available with lined or blank pages. With 176 pages of smooth 100 gsm paper, a flexible softcover, Smyth sewn binding, elastic closure, ribbon marker, edge printing, and back cover pouch, it brings Gilded Age bookbinding style into a practical everyday notebook. Product Story New York Rose is inspired by an 1898 binding of Prue & I by George William Curtis, a sentimental and humorous study of life written during the height of New York’s Gilded Age. The original binding was produced by the Club Bindery, a New York design house founded by members of the Grolier Club to bring the art of fine European-style bookbinding to the United States. Garlands of flowers, gold embellishment-inspired details, and a rich purple ground give this design its romantic, collected-book character. The original volume is now held by The New York Public Library, connecting this journal to a story of literature, private libraries, fine binding, and the preservation of beautiful books.
