Logarithmes notebook handmade and bound with 130g quality white paper in an old school book from sold 1966 via upcycling
This vintage book "Nouvelles Tables de Logarithmes avec règles et formules usuelles" by Hachette published in 1966 becomes a unique notebook that will follow you everywhere. This is the perfect gift for mathematicians! Whether you turn it into a diary, travel diary, guestbook, or drawing, its blank pages are just waiting for your sold ideas!
Its high-pitched format makes it a hyper original newspaper!
Size:
Pages (double-sided = 2 pages): 120
Height: 22.5 cm
Width: 10.5 cm
Slice thickness: 2 cm
Paper type: FSP white, 130 grams (+ 12 pages of the original book)
I bound the pages by sewing by hand with black waxed cotton thread, using a Coptic binding to ensure an optimal flat opening. The corners of the book being very damaged, I added new rigid corners.
More than a notebook, an upcycled book, these are stories, memories of the first reading of a favorite book. And to upcycle these old books that I collect full of dust, tasks, is to offer them a new life and avoid them the trash.
WWF estimates that depending on the scenarios, the end of life (household waste and recycling) would concern 107,000 to 233,000 t/year of books, all sources combined.
The notebooks I propose have been washed but they can have marks, stripes, discoloration, or other. It's upcycling, not new. But it is in old books that we make the best notebooks!
The colors of the photos may vary depending on the settings of your screen.
Expedition:
The items are packed in tissue paper and shipping is made via Colissimo.
I try to reuse cardboard packages already used to limit the impact on the environment, but sometimes I do not have any on hand and therefore use new ones that I invite you to reuse later for your own shipments.
Thank you very much for your visit. Do not hesitate to send me a message if you have any questions or if you are interested in a click & collect in Moëlan sur Mer.
