This is the notebook of Officer Anthony Karnowski of the Cleveland police department, given to me for my birthday by my old friend Alan.
I can't find out much about Karnowski (apart from his WW2 records, which say that he was born in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, and had had four years of high school education before he enlisted in March, 1943). He died a couple of years ago (his last residence seems to be this house), and someone put this notebook up on eBay, along with his collection of mug shots.
Here's his obituary, from the Cleveland Plain Dealer, May 24, 2010:
ANTHONY W. KARNOWSKI

Another selection from this month's trip to Iowa: notebooks filled by the Titian Sleuth. I love that quote in the middle. She writes in these journals and then completes them by writing a saying on the cover after they're filled. The quote on the blue one comes from Wendell Berry's beautiful poem.
My handmade notebook in my wedgewood design - the way it turned out just reminded me of the classic wedgewood pottery.
Quick snaps of my Moleskine to show a friend (and possibly for an article trying to inspire others to write their thoughts down).
I use mine to collect observations and thoughts on communication and culture, plan social experiments, and even think about the occasional LEGO model. Jimbo started out in this book.
Found two of my husband's grandfather's ledgers in a drawer in the garage. It reminded me so much of the Field Notes notebook, I had to photograph them together. However, Grandpa's "Field Notes" has much more cred containing, as it does, all kinds of planting and farming tables in the back, and tractor info. Mine contains dirty stories and notes on the bathroom tile.
Just thought I'd add more info in light of the additional visitors the past few days: Grandpa was a real farmer right here in Los Angeles before it got so crowded. He immigrated in 1908 from the Basque country on the border between Spain & France. He started with a dairy farm in the neighborhood of El Sereno for about 20 years, then moved to Alhambra (so his four lovely daughters would have easy access to the big city) and ran a hay farm in the nearby neighborhood of Monterey Park. There's no evidence anymore of these farms other than photos, these ledgers, and a few milk bottles and scraps of rather terrifying cattle equipment in the back of our garage.
My husband and I live in the 1936 house in Alhambra that grandpa bought to be closer to the hay farm. A friend of mine lives just down the road in what used to be the middle of the farm. It's so fascinating to me to imagine what Los Angeles used to be like - say when Grandpa arrived from France in 1908, or when his daughters were running around in 1930's LA, making shopping trips, going to movies in the old movie houses, riding the Red Cars, going over the border to Mexico for some partying.
* I made this notebook cover out of cotton fabrics and cardboard. I also used fleece, to pad the outside, embroidery fabric, embroidery thread and a piece of ribbon.
* Ik heb deze notitieblokhouder gemaakt van katoenen stofjes en karton. Daarnaast heb ik fleece gebruikt, als zachte tussenlaag voor de buitenkant, borduurstof, borduurgaren en een stukje lint.
The notebook is around half full with only a couple of ideas used. I need to get my arse into gear. I don't know why I have drawn a tree on this page and no, I didn't draw this photograph before I took it.
I'm the first to admit that my drawings are rubbish, stick men are probably the pinnacle of my ability.
Oh and I'm not paranoid, honest.
I'm glad Midori responded very fast by accepting my suggestion to make Traveler's notebook more usable. The original open pockets can't store much. Now they plan to make a pocket with zipper than can store receipts and passport in a quite safe way. The plastic pocket can be inserted in the elastic band that holds the paper notebook

A thought-dump for AltFontPrev from what must be over a year ago now. Finally got round to releasing it a few days ago: samrayner.com/archives/altfontprev
