This long-standing tradition was continued by writer-traveller Bruce Chatwin who used to buy his moleskines at an old Paris stationery shop in Rue de l'Ancienne Comedie where he would always stock up before embarking on one of his journeys. Over the years he had developed a veritable ritual. Before using them he would in fact number the pages, writing on the inside his name and at least two addresses across the world, and a message promising a reward for anyone finding and returning the notebook in case of it being lost. He even suggested this method to his friend Luis Sepulveda, when he gave him a precious moleskine as a present for a journey they were planning to undertake together in Patagonia. And there was no doubt as to how precious it was, given that at the time even the last moleskine manufacturer, a small family-run firm of Tours, had discontinued production in 1986. 'Le vrai moleskine n'est plus' was the short and curt statement of the owner of the stationery shop where Chatwin had ordered one hundred before leaving for Australia. Despite having literally swept up all the Moleskines he could find, they were not enough. Now, the moleskine is back again. This silent and discreet keeper of an extraordinary tradition, which has been missing for years, has set out again on its journey. A witness to contemporary nomadism, it can once again pass from one pocket to another to continue the adventure. The sequel still waits to be written and its blank pages are ready to tell the story.

Love the pocket in the back. Love that it's not pre-printed, just blank lines. Let's me write as little or as much as I want.

Moleskine Small Address Book Has good quality paper, a built in page marker, enough pages, durable cover, and conveniently small. And price is right.

Good quality but a bit overpriced, as are all of the Moleskine products. The shipping cost was almost the same as the price of this item, so in the end, it was not worth it.

Since the book was sealed when I bought it, I expected that it would contain the usual spaces (i.e. name, address, city, etc) and I was pleasantly surprised to find-out that it simply contained lines to write down whatever information you wanted. No tiny spaces for you to struggle information into, you had lines to write down whatever you wanted. I've never used all the spaces given in a typical address book and now I have one that I am 100% comfortable and satified with.

This is a great address book, but you should know that the price coming out of the factory is $9.95, not the higher prices cited in this listing.
