== Description ==
The inspiration for this set of memo books came from Aaron Draplin's collection of vintage memorabilia. The resulting edition was aimed to pay tribute to the cross-country-road-trip spirit of America, via the vibrant full-color aesthetic of the beautifully-roughhewn memo books and road maps of the 1960s<ref>{{cite web|url= https://fieldnotesbrand.com/products/america-the-beautiful |title= Field Notes America the Beautiful page |site= Field Notes }}</ref>. Notable features of the design includes oversaturated photos, printed on a purposefully out-of-register screen, to harken back to the intended era.

Colorful stock photography of “Spacious Skies,” “Amber Waves,” and “Mountains Majesty” are reproduced in full-color on heavyweight, off-white, Tango-coated one-side covers, and stuffed with 48 pages of burly Finch “Soft White” paper ruled with “Looseleaf Blue” ink. They’re bound together with shiny copper staples, and as always: they’re manufactured in the very nation they celebrate.

The packs also included a water-transfer decal to be applied to your camper or cross-country vehicle of choice.
