{"product_id":"field-notes-1943-edition-3-pack","title":"Field Notes 1943 Edition 3-Pack","description":"\u003cp\u003eMany of the Field Notes limited editions have explored interesting chapters in the history of American, printing, publishing and design and this one goes deep (and sideways) into just such a story. In 1943, the U.S. government and the American publishing industry collaborated to create what came to be known as the “Armed Services Editions.” Over the next few years, more than 120 million books representing over 1,200 titles were printed and distributed to overseas troops during the Second World War. The books were printed in an odd horizontal format with bright, primary-colored covers — and that is what inspired this Winter 2025 release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe “1943” Memo Books mimic the ASE’s horizontal orientation. While they’re the usual 5.5\" x 3.5\" Memo Book size, they’re the first with two staples on the short side instead of three on the long side. The short-edge binding also works great for a vertical notebook! So it’s up to you, there’s a horizontal cover on one side, and a vertical cover on the other. Whether you want to flip the top of your Field Notes open to take notes as you interview a witness, or spread the pages wide for a panoramic sketch of a crime scene, the 1943 “Two-Way” Edition is the right tool for your investigation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSet of 3 pocket memo books\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOne each red, blue, and yellow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e48 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGraph paper with an “Aged Newsprint” 3\/16\" graph grid.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStaple bound along the short side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3.5\" x 5.5\" | 89 x 139 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Field Notes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43988488421475,"sku":"FN-850032279437","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0903\/2160\/files\/Field-Notes-1943-Edition-3-Pack.jpg?v=1770482445","url":"https:\/\/www.jennibick.mom\/products\/field-notes-1943-edition-3-pack","provider":"Jenni Bick Custom Journals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
