Product Description
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.

Summary: Great Product 2008-08-07
Comment: The other reviews largely criticize delivery of the planner, so I just wanted to say that I have one of these planners and I love it. The paper is high quality, and I love having a note page every week. I would prefer a hard cover, which is the only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5.

Summary: Long wait 2008-07-23
Comment: This journal just what I want, but I think three months is too long to wait for it. I ordered it on May 5, 2008 and I have received three notifications that it is delayed. The last notification pushed delivery back to August 22, 2008.

Summary: Delayed delivery 2008-07-23
Comment: I ordered this product on June 20 even though it was out of stock. I was given an estimated ship date of July 16-22. My estimated ship date has now been moved to August 11 (even though the new "in-stock" date is showing as August 5) with an estimated arrival date of August 18-22.
I have been actively searching for this item for months and most vendors seem to be sold out or charging WAY ABOVE retail. The price may be worth the wait. While I'm waiting I am continuing my search.
I have used (and am using) the 18 month pocket planner from Jul 2007 to Dec 2008. It is the best planner I have ever used and I am looking forward to the large size when it becomes available.
