Postalco's Notebook A5 Pingraph Faded Black is made in Japan and features a cotton pressed cover, 1mm pin-graph paper, a spiral ring and crisp clean cut edges. Adorned with Postalco’s carrier pigeon, we think their notebooks are one of the smartest around.
Postalco uses Starch-pressed cotton, which is bound to the cover. With time and use, the colours will lighten and the weave of the fabric will become more and more apparent. The pressed cotton fabric is treated to be water-resistant.
A nice detail is the positioning of the spiral ring. Instead of spiralling the paper at the edge of the paper, Postalco had it positioned just off the edge, on the top cover. This allows you to tuck away your notebook between your books in a book case in a classy way, with the spiral ring covered. It also allows you to write something on the spine.
We love to use this Postalco Notebook A5 Pingraph Faded Black in a landscape position, flipping over the pages.

Made in Japan

Postalco’s signature: 1mm pingraph paper
The corners of the paper are cut in a 45 degrees angle. Besides the graphic element, it eases flipping over to the next page. The paper itself has a 1mm pingraph paper, with the grid printed in a blue hue. The colour of the paper is almost soothing to the eyes, and serves as a very nice background for whatever scribbles or handwriting you fill this sheet with. The grid makes it perfect to have a little more guidance to draw straight lines. Yet, as the grid is this tiny, the paper easily presents itself as a blank sheet, without the boundaries that grid or lined paper may have.
Misc-store Amsterdam x Postalco
At Misc-store, we absolutely adore the Postalco products for their incredible quality and and their general approach to product design. We as humans are restricted to what we can do on our own, and have developed a great variety of tools to help us through life. If the objects we use in our everyday life are well made, we will use them longer and with greater pleasure. This idea - the well-aging tool - is at the centre of Postalco's design approach.
Misc-store has carried the Postalco line for 7 years now. During this period, we have seen many versions and items come and go, and have grown to love the brand and its products more and more with each improvement.
We are not the only fans: our customers share this growing appreciation, and we have had the pleasure of seeing tons of different uses for Postalco's items. Especially their Snap Pad has been sold as a wedding guest book, a portfolio, a lamp colour filter holder for a film director - its purpose is as varied as our customer base.
Misc-store Amsterdam x Postalco will be a collaboration to continue into the future: we are excited to see what more innovation they will bring, and what other ways people will come up with to use their products.

About Postalco
You detect something of a quest for perfection in Postalco’s work. A sliver of imagination that sticks itself into something not quite good enough and prises it open, revealing new territories within.
Postalco’s very first project began in just such an inquisitive way. Bag designer Mike Abelson found the bag of his partner, graphic designer Yuri Abelson, stuffed with awkwardly bent papers from her work. He set about making a better carry case for her papers, which resulted in the Postalco legal envelope. Soon enough, they packed their bags and swapped New York for Tokyo, in order to be closer to the artisans responsible for crafting their distinctive products.
Postalco products are often materially dependant, reflecting a precise history of the leather, brass, cotton and fabric with which they were made. We were drawn to these objects from the moment we saw them. From the moment we began stocking Postalco in 2010, we found the Ableson’s work special – touching in its desire for longevity and engaging in its aesthetic sensibility.
We’re a proud stockist of Postalco, and we have been carrying their products since we first opened Misc Store in Amsterdam. If you’re in the Netherlands, come and visit our store in to get a feel for these supremely tactile objects.
