5 out of 5 starspackage arrived! no dents, or bumps. I'm opening the
package on december 25. I'll post another review at that
time. Thanks for the care + work you obviously put in your
craft. How do I know if I didn't yet open his typographic work? because he clearly shows it in a demo. & the demo
is fantastic! -

5 out of 5 starsPerfect! Thank you. The extras and the note were a lovely touch. I’m a NSCAD grad too, and a former NSCAD employee. My partner — for whose birthday I bought these notebooks — is a current NSCAD employee.

5 out of 5 starsWe love it so much. It's a beautiful design on excellent material and we're eager to frame it. Shipping was expedient and an extremely high degree of care was taken that the print didn't get damaged.
Highly recommend the DeLillo print, if it's still available! -

The notebook is also very well made, great design, and very unique.
Always a good experience purchasing from this shop!
