Scout Books

My friend Frank Chimero filled me in on a little project he had been working on a couple weeks ago and it’s finally seeing the light of day. Scout Books is a little company started by Pinball Publishing who began creating these Field Notes-esque notepads last year but have teamed up with artists like Frank to create an artist series. Frank’s design is the one on the right and funny enough is called Muttnik, which was a nickname for Laika, the first dog in space. Next month is going to feature Mike Perry, so we should be in for some treats throughout the year.
What’s also fun is that you can create your own notebooks and they’re pretty dang cheap. You can get 50 made for $195, so around $4 each. Think about selling each for $10 and you’re more than doubling your profit, nice, huh? Lots of really rad notebooks to check out so get clicking!

If you've got something to say, keep it positive.I’m not trying to be a jerk here, but i think that would make them about $4 each…still a steal though.
@Me – Yes, quite right, my math is fuzzy at 2 AM.
I am not convinced anyone would buy notebooks like that for $10 but the idea is great! I would probably be more likely to use them as gifts if i make any!
Bobby, thanks so much for the great post about Scout Books!
