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.

 Moleskine Address Book November 25, 2007

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.
 An Address Book for the Real World June 2, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
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.
The Best Little Black Book for keeping your family and friends contact info. August 25, 2006

I am very pleased with my Moleskin Small Address Book. I can fully appreciate why Picasso and Hemingway used the Moleskin Notebooks. The quality of material used to produced my address book is clearly of the highest that can be found.
What I especially liked about my small moleskin address book is that the pages are ruled for you to use as you like, unlike other books that have designated space for street addresses or phone number. As you know sometimes all you want to do it keep the phone number while with other contacts you want to keep a biography on them, their birthdates, their children's birthdates , anniversary, email addresses etc.
I think its a perfect address book. I liked it so much I bought three, one for my Mom, my sister and myself.

This is the best handbag-size address book. Discreet, sexy, all grown up. I bought my first one in Italy and will continue to buy more (because I never write in pencil!)
