The Molesking plain reporter is an excellent notebook in many ways, without doubt one of the best on the market.

When you first open it and see the cover page with its space for a reward for its return, you know that any Moleskine notebook is a throwback to a more literate time when words and ideas were more important to the people who made them. Holding one allows you to imagine great people doing great things and that owning one brings you closer to them--not just writers, but musicians, scientists and mathematicians or anyone else who needed to have an idea and hold on to it.

In its design, the Moleskine Reporter is a classic with convenience features that make it surprisingly modern. Its built-in rubberized cloth band keeps it from falling open when dropped; it's back pocket allows you to keep miscellaneous papers and items like receipts, stamps and photographs without making you resort to your wallet. Its featureless blank pages allow you to establish your own formatting as you work (making it perfectly suitable for combinations of notes and sketches in landscape and portrait formats)--the perfect feature when your forms of creativity require notes and drawings for visualization. Better still, its semi-hard covers give you a writing surface anywhere you have an idea, from your hand when standing on a streetcorner to your thigh during a train or plane-ride. The Moleskine Plain Reporter is something special, a throwback to a more literate age that is perfectly sized to fit in the back pocket of a pair of Levis.
