Field Notes' 64th Quarterly Limited Edition for fall, 2024 is “The Birds and Trees of North America” Edition, featuring the artwork of Rex Brasher (1869–1960).
Rex Brasher’s artistic talent, love of nature, technical expertise, and persistence offer an inspiring story that should be better known by anyone with an interest in birds, nature, or art. From a young age, Brasher committed to visiting all of America’s bird species in their natural habitats. He spent a lifetime traveling, collecting notes and drawings, writing personal, thoughtful descriptions and painting and re-painting birds.
The Field Notes crew carefully reproduced six of Brasher's colorful illustrations on two 3-Packs of Field Notes Ruled Memo Books. Covers are a lovely felt textured 100#C Mohawk Via “Pure White,” bound by three stainless steel staples. The bodies are 60#T Domtar Lynx Opaque Ultra, ruled with pale grey lines.
