FIELD NOTES - Foiled Again - Three 48-Page Memo Books

Field Notes? 59th Quarterly Edition, ?Foiled Again,? revisits one of their favourite printing processes. Many past Field Notes editions have featured hot-foil stamping, in which metallic or pigmented foils are applied to paper with heat and pressure. The process was originally patented in 1892 by Ernst Oeser of Germany, replacing the manual application of gold leaf in the book industry. 

Also new to this edition is a matching tuck box, featuring the cover art in reversed colours: blue foil on Neenah Pearl ?Sterling? stock. The box contains and protects three Field Notes until you?re ready to use them, and provides a safe home for completed books.
