Some of you might remember that I got a unique sample sketchbook in my goodies from the Urban Sketchers Symposium. My Stillman & Birn sketchbook had the logo embossed on the back( upside down) and the spine had been hacked somewhat (see below). Well Michael from S&B found my photo and it turns out I got a sample copy that they used to test the imprint (how special is that!?) and that they would send me out a replacement. Well it arrived today PLUS a second (larger!) sketchbook… now how extra special is that!?!

Not only that, but Michael noticed that I was used to white paper so he sent me one form the Alpha series (same quality as the ones we got in Lisbon) but with white paper.

A huge thank you to Michael and Stillman & Birn!!!!
