Mucu Type RN-B Notebook
This is a super-lightweight yet fun and practical notebook.
Made of cardboard with paper that is called “comic” (from comic books?), it has a bright removable elastic band.
It has that look of a found or reclaimed object, though there is clearly quite a bit of design in this functional notebook. It may be part of a larger movement that seems focused on used basic materials, yet incorporating design principles.
The paper takes pencil without problem. A Pilot Petit1 fountain pen saturated the page to the other side, though didn’t noticeably feather.
The pages are ring-bound.

This notebook is very appealing to me. – This seems to be the manufacturer’s website.

Yes, they make a nice looking line of notebooks. Where did you get the one above? Do they have a distributor in the U. S.?

Steve, I don’ know about distributors, but this one was purchased from bundoki.com

The lettering on the cover reminds me of the lettering on the sides of the boxes of merchandise I used to open as a housewares stockclerk. I like this sort of severe look.
