ABSTRACT:
A notebook construction in which multiple blank pages of a small notebook are provided by folded sheets of paper eight times the nominal dimensions of the notebook pages. Selective unfolding of the folded pages provides larger pages for use where desired. Sheets of paper having an area eight times the area of the folded pages are stacked and sewn together along one-half of a center fold. The other half of the center fold is cut so that each half of the sheet may be folded twice to the completely folded page size, and the sheets are of different colors so that the two halves of a particular sheet may be selected and used. The stitching utilizes threads of different colors, and the threads extend beyond the stitching by a distance sufficient for the threads to act as a built-in bookmark. The stiffer cover of the notebook has rows of perforations spaced inwardly from its edges to facilitate removal of edge portions so that the cover can fit into a pocket or pockets in a protective and/or decorative outer cover.
