Field Notes Brand Field Notes Spring Limited Edition

Hello Friends,

Our 66th Quarterly Limited Edition for the Spring of 2025 is “The Chicago Look,” Edition which explores a chapter of American design and typographic history through the lens of a single, highly influential — and sadly now-defunct — enterprise.

The Beverly Sign Co. put Chicago at the center of the mid-century sign-painting map with its “panelized” compositions, novel typographic treatments, and bold colors. This style came to be known as “The Chicago Look.”  

These note books are a new size for us; a handy 6" × 8." The 64 pages are graph-ruled in “Non-Repro Blue.” As usual, the inside covers are full of historical information, illustrations, and wise-cracking.

SIGN UP:  Year-long subscribers are also receiving a 2.25" “Wall Dogs Forever” pin-back button and a postcard of the finished sign which is now proudly hanging at Field Notes HQ!  Start a year-long subscription and receive free USA shipping on all subscription shipments, 10% off while shopping at our site, and lots of other benefits, including our sincere thanks.

LAUNCH PARTY at HQ:  If you’re in Chicago, or can get here quick, we’re hosting a Launch Party Happy Hour at Field Notes tomorrow (3/27) from 4-7. We have some surprises planned, plus drinks, snacks, plenty of free parking, nerdy design, type, and sign-painting conversations too. Hope to see you! 

Cheers, The Field Notes Crew
