Need help finding a notebook!

Post image

Hi I am reaching out to this subreddit because I have been pulling my hairs trying to find a specific type of notebook with the following properties:

- Basic, hardcover leather notebook or journal
- No straps, ties, or any other attachments
- BLANK, non ruled or non lined paper

One would think that something like this would be easy to find but I have been looking for hours now to no avail.
I attached a picture for reference.

So what? Perhaps the suggestion was helpful.
That notebook suits OP’s needs.

So close! If it wasn’t for the strap attached to the book 😭 although I may just cut it off..

Ah I didn’t even think about the bookmark ribbon. (I don’t like it when there isn’t a ribbon.)
Are you using it for drawing?

Drawing / collaging trips and hikes

Sounds great! I have a few paperage notebooks. They’re quite popular. They don’t have leather covers, but everything else you want. Blank ones are $10 and sketchbook and collage thickness.
There’s also of course Strathmore sketchbook, but I don’t think that would fit the bill.
