Postalco?

Recommended Posts

These are some expensive little Japanese notebooks that I've been wishing to be given as a gift. They have a super tiny gridded paper (I think other options available) and I'm a sucker for linen covers (which come in many colors). Does anyone have any thoughts?

 

A few images I culled without permission. Forgive me.

I just took a look at the notebooks at another website, I must say I would be wiling to try one. I do think that they look very nice, I especially like that they can be used landscape or portrait.

I know this thread is rather old, but I came across it in a search for any word or review, etc. on these notebooks here on the forum. I've been looking for really great Japanese notebooks and currently have some Midori MD (beautiful! and the same paper as the Traveller's notebook) and am waiting for an order of Life Noble Note Plain in A5 size. I found the Postalco notebooks in my search and they are beautiful looking. I trust that like most high-end Japanese notebooks, that the paper will be great for fountain pens. Did you have any luck finding and using one of these? I'd love to hear about it.

Great review! The price has always seemed high, but I really love the philosophy of their aesthetic.

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
