FIELD NOTES SNOWY EVENING
ONE OF A KIND, 99,999 TIMES
It’s December, and Field Notes HQ in Chicago hasn’t seen more than a few flurries yet, so let’s get Winter 2020 started with Field Notes Quarterly Edition, “Snowy Evening.”
We’ve limited this 49th Quarterly Edition to 33,333 3-Packs. Each Memo Book cover features a unique snowflake illustration rendered by our friend and co-conspirator, Brendan Dawes. Each snowflake is different, so every book is different, and so for the first time in a Quarterly Edition – we’ve individually numbered each book.
Inspired by the physics behind how ice crystals are formed in the atmosphere, Brendan crafted an algorithm that produced and rendered 99,999 lovely snowflake illustrations. (Read the whole story here). With the expertise of our partners at Lake County Press, the covers were printed over the course of five days on a next-generation digital press with white ink on “Deep Blue” Mohawk Carnival Vellum 80# cover. The Finch Opaque inside pages feature a special light-blue-gray dot-graph pattern. The books are bound with glossy white staples, and we don’t generally talk much about the “belly bands” that hold 3-Packs together, but this one is arguably our most handsome to date.
While creating this edition, it occurred to us that, like snowflakes, every Field Notes Memo Book is different. This time, that’s literally true. But what makes each book truly unique are the notes we write to ourselves on its 48 pages.
’TIS THE…
SEASONAL LIMITED EDITION
Now is the time to start a Field Notes subscription. You’ll get two 3-Packs of “Snowy Evening” (six unique snowflakes!) and then the Spring, Summer, and Fall 2021 Editions as they’re released. Spring will be our 50th Quarterly Release, an anniversary that deserves to be celebrated with something special for subscribers. Beyond Spring, things are hazy, but we can all agree that 2021 can’t come fast enough.
