Moleskine is the most popular in artist's journals. It's the legendary notebook used by the European artists and intellectuals who made 20th-century culture: from Henri Matisse to van Gogh, from Louis Ferdinand Celine to Ernest Hemmingway. Writer-traveler Bruce Chatwin picked up this tradition and made it famous.

The Lined Moleskine Notebook is ideal for musicians, sound designers, and songwriters. Jot down harmonies, melodies, and musical ideas.

The Storyboard Moleskine Notebook is perfect for graphic designers, filmmakers, and cartoonists. Each page consists of a sequence of storyboard frames.

These distinctive, soft-bound books look and feel handmade. Each book contains 150 natural paper sheets and is surprisingly lightweight. The heavy paper cover has a leather-like texture on both sides, plus inner pockets at the front and back. An attached black elastic band runs lengthwise to keep the book securely closed. Signature binding keeps the sheets secure despite constant flexing. Handmade in Nepal.

Sizes: 4-1/2"x7" or 7"x9".

Colors: Purple, Sage Green, Moon Gray, Red Earth, or Ochre
