Sadly, I can't get to show these pieces of work to everyone ...so this is the best way to show others what people are up to. It's also my way of thanking those that I work with and take the time and trouble to send me lovely, interesting things.

The original choice was to use a synthetic paper as typically, with the British weather, paper maps get wet and the paper falls apart. However, synthetic papers are basically plastic and it does not fit with the vineyard's environmental policy. The solution is a clever one! It is produced on a 100% recycled (post consumer waste) label paper called </span><a href="https://reflex-paper.com/en/produkt/reflex-label-trevi/" style="background-color: white; color: #5588aa; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-decoration-line: none;">Trevi</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;"> manufactured by the </span><a href="https://reflex-paper.com/en/our-company/" style="background-color: white; color: #5588aa; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-decoration-line: none;">Reflex Paper Mill</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;"> in Germany. So, I hear you ask, why is that so clever? Well, this label paper is manufactured with what is described as 'Wet Strength' (WS) and is manufactured with the addition of chemicals which improve the tensile properties of the paper both in wet and dry state by crosslinking the cellulose fibres with covalent bonds that do not break upon wetting. It basically mens that it doesn't fall apart when it gets wet. These papers are generally used for label papers where the label is required to come off in one piece in the recycling process. It is also the same technique that is used in facial tissues, which stops them falling apart when you blow your nose, unlike toilet paper, which falls apart. This looks and feels like a totally normal sheet of paper but when it gets wet it will hold together, much better than a normal sheet of paper - it's the perfect choice! </span><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="background-color: white; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding: 4px;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-m1Ip_IiqC68/YIwNv7k3iuI/AAAAAAAAaN0/fdeAG8TtA4YsKYkAMEo4mPu2u0bMNGywwCNcBGAsYHQ/s1844/16.jpg" style="color: #5588aa; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1396" data-original-width="1844" height="303" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-m1Ip_IiqC68/YIwNv7k3iuI/AAAAAAAAaN0/fdeAG8TtA4YsKYkAMEo4mPu2u0bMNGywwCNcBGAsYHQ/w400-h303/16.jpg" style="border: none; padding: 0px;" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="font-size: 10.4px; text-align: center;">Click on images to enlarge</td></tr></tbody></table><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;">Above and below images show both sides </span><div class="separator" style="background-color: white; clear: both; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qkBKbpt82hg/YIwN1KdbvoI/AAAAAAAAaN4/gFnSDZwrR5YS-Sttgsdm5f7ZcWYY6dkggCNcBGAsYHQ/s1810/17.jpg" style="color: #5588aa; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1369" data-original-width="1810" height="303" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qkBKbpt82hg/YIwN1KdbvoI/AAAAAAAAaN4/gFnSDZwrR5YS-Sttgsdm5f7ZcWYY6dkggCNcBGAsYHQ/w400-h303/17.jpg" style="border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 4px;" width="400" /></a></div><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;">The design incorporates these superb woodcuts, which look perfect on the neutral white shade of the paper.</span><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="background-color: white; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding: 4px;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GPQ0A5HwZFQ/YIwN6WgRrnI/AAAAAAAAaN8/gkbcZYL4LBcBWtiqe9ePE5muz5gSnbnSQCNcBGAsYHQ/s1963/20.jpg" style="color: #5588aa; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1963" data-original-width="1512" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GPQ0A5HwZFQ/YIwN6WgRrnI/AAAAAAAAaN8/gkbcZYL4LBcBWtiqe9ePE5muz5gSnbnSQCNcBGAsYHQ/w308-h400/20.jpg" style="border: none; padding: 0px;" width="308" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="font-size: 10.4px; text-align: center;">Click on images to enlarge</td></tr></tbody></table><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;">The paper is called<a href="https://reflex-paper.com/en/produkt/reflex-label-trevi/" style="color: #5588aa; text-decoration-line: none;"> Trevi Recycled </a>80gsm which is manufactured by the <a href="https://reflex-paper.com/en/" style="color: #5588aa; text-decoration-line: none;">Reflex</a> paper mill in Germany and we are pleased to be their UK stockist and distributor.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;"><br /></div><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;">Below image showing front and back covers.</span><div class="separator" style="background-color: white; clear: both; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xzDEzD7GekM/YIwN__R17_I/AAAAAAAAaOE/G-5favGnYNIJh5C_wGxiyVj0VyuNDAlMgCNcBGAsYHQ/s1645/19.jpg" style="color: #5588aa; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1126" data-original-width="1645" height="274" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xzDEzD7GekM/YIwN__R17_I/AAAAAAAAaOE/G-5favGnYNIJh5C_wGxiyVj0VyuNDAlMgCNcBGAsYHQ/w400-h274/19.jpg" style="border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 4px;" width="400" /></a></div><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;">Design is by </span><a href="https://utile.studio/" style="background-color: white; color: #5588aa; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-decoration-line: none;">UTILE</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;">.

For those readers not familiar with Omnia, it is an uncoated paper with a surface treatment. What this means is that it feels like an uncoated paper but because the surface treatment minimises 'dot-gain', the print result is much more like that of a coated silk or gloss coated paper. You can see the result - the solid red looks so vibrant and the tactile quality really works with the illustrations. Omnia also has a high bulk, so although this is only a 12pp it feels much more substantial.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5GI2-2FnpFU/XtodLc66SjI/AAAAAAAAYPY/dp7OL6NerLMojKW-joTX9s8LTWxC0vNagCEwYBhgLKs0DAL1Ocqw_fzohxUMGVDPnTm1VL1p2fkLFcEyszwikjpUyc58y6gPAsd8FVaNoB0z9YxpUFRkgS84yTi7-ajKIuSX9Yhy6C5I_d9pTBol-E24OG_x3j9dpo7buIQTpDAaNd0YiJgfKxXd2ZpNZ3SeQhbJPlYTuDjdKe0lCKxQDwWLwsLdZH-Pv1Rd2JdAqXt2hWB1L8w2pqKlHGX4LWCp4hrbIHPLXo2rxdsxOZilFk6MZ0SOexPc2Ne1FDLpzv7K_kjtyeby5GUKYn_qvqDAE5eQj1npsgmz1oSCn-3PVVkrnq0cTgkqvT-xx3AvQcLxIXMV3oa1fygVWDLqUCtj3-2e6xvb2KlgBtaOFlS8504Vj5L5NZpP0QrBVis6drnIBymJbvM0OsqhyQbZpg0cmjeQwyNgV8pg5JyRE_EUs7QgtdnwfzQNtxM7E0zFyqSOcHcBquAERVKwTYmL8ybxKiPuFuGRgYqnlPjSGJxe3xgLWvPKIgvyNMi2v1VjvUxuQP8QBJUoEC38CaZ8fk5o908F04u51ZfRtGyrwh0yWf4PzlsNcxD1fPLZ8AjsfeFFc1OTcBd1Lk64P-QmBMpP_Oz8d7K-Zkvb8yw00rS8wlsHo9gU/s1600/16.jpg" style="color: #5588aa; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5GI2-2FnpFU/XtodLc66SjI/AAAAAAAAYPY/dp7OL6NerLMojKW-joTX9s8LTWxC0vNagCEwYBhgLKs0DAL1Ocqw_fzohxUMGVDPnTm1VL1p2fkLFcEyszwikjpUyc58y6gPAsd8FVaNoB0z9YxpUFRkgS84yTi7-ajKIuSX9Yhy6C5I_d9pTBol-E24OG_x3j9dpo7buIQTpDAaNd0YiJgfKxXd2ZpNZ3SeQhbJPlYTuDjdKe0lCKxQDwWLwsLdZH-Pv1Rd2JdAqXt2hWB1L8w2pqKlHGX4LWCp4hrbIHPLXo2rxdsxOZilFk6MZ0SOexPc2Ne1FDLpzv7K_kjtyeby5GUKYn_qvqDAE5eQj1npsgmz1oSCn-3PVVkrnq0cTgkqvT-xx3AvQcLxIXMV3oa1fygVWDLqUCtj3-2e6xvb2KlgBtaOFlS8504Vj5L5NZpP0QrBVis6drnIBymJbvM0OsqhyQbZpg0cmjeQwyNgV8pg5JyRE_EUs7QgtdnwfzQNtxM7E0zFyqSOcHcBquAERVKwTYmL8ybxKiPuFuGRgYqnlPjSGJxe3xgLWvPKIgvyNMi2v1VjvUxuQP8QBJUoEC38CaZ8fk5o908F04u51ZfRtGyrwh0yWf4PzlsNcxD1fPLZ8AjsfeFFc1OTcBd1Lk64P-QmBMpP_Oz8d7K-Zkvb8yw00rS8wlsHo9gU/s400/16.jpg" style="border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 4px;" width="300" /></a></div>It is a simple format and because it has been produced and finished superbly, it is beautiful.

This not only needs to be laboriously cleaned before being reused but because less paper is being used in general (because of digitisation) it is becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. German manufacturer WEPA is making the most of the fact that, alongside this, online shopping is generating more and more waste paper from packaging, and has developed the first sanitary paper made from recycled cardboard packaging and corrugated cardboard - what a brilliant idea!</div><div><br /></div><div>This innovation was awarded not only the Blue Angel mark (Fenner Paper holds Blue Angel certification which I have written about this before <a href="https://justinsamazingworldatfennerpaper.blogspot.com/2023/07/blue-angel-certification.html">HERE</a>) but also the <a href="https://www.bundespreis-ecodesign.de/en">German Ecodesign Award</a> for sanitary paper innovation – presented by German Minister for the Environment Steffi Lemke. </div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirvDQbtUsL3ILQGb-tnmZvidKUbtY_NzgNJnsM-rLRhXld005UujKbSokPALNCdO9AWe-67qmUNJ11NThngKolHPFZVYJkNyP8Y21UOA5X7iEjo0fyNbNG0AJtqJD17p19WbymS_k89wR-urNfu0IBGZvauujJ6Epob5JEpiEAw0cGApDUp20F9cBz6P5i/s600/Blue%20Angel%20Wepa.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="337" data-original-width="600" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirvDQbtUsL3ILQGb-tnmZvidKUbtY_NzgNJnsM-rLRhXld005UujKbSokPALNCdO9AWe-67qmUNJ11NThngKolHPFZVYJkNyP8Y21UOA5X7iEjo0fyNbNG0AJtqJD17p19WbymS_k89wR-urNfu0IBGZvauujJ6Epob5JEpiEAw0cGApDUp20F9cBz6P5i/w400-h225/Blue%20Angel%20Wepa.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Federal Minister for the Environment, Steffi Lemke (centre), presents the German Ecodesign Award to Andreas Krengel, member of the WEPA Management Board (left), and Patrick Schumacher, Director of Marketing & Business Development at WEPA Professional.

Recently, the club appointed an archivist, and the photos, hand-drawn maps and memories poured in – an unexpected treasure trove of incredible value and beauty. The photos are full of the joy of riding your bike and evocative of a bygone style – of a time when you might set off on a club ride wearing a shirt and tie, a deerstalker or a bobble hat, and no ride was complete without a stop to brew up some tea and smoke a pipe.<br /><br />In their own quiet, very British way, these men and women were pioneers, pedalling and carrying their bikes and pitching their tents where angels feared to tread. Mountain bikes, gravel bikes, bikepacking – they all followed in the tyre tracks of the RSF. This book celebrates their style and their spirit. It is a document not only of the history of cycling off the beaten track, but of British outdoor culture...<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Ci9jRTWQ0jQ/Xkfw0He_9RI/AAAAAAAAXk0/2t8ss_NkGtYdNiE9O3F_ZBOJyhDtauJPgCEwYBhgL/s1600/07.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="color: #5588aa; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="460" data-original-width="381" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Ci9jRTWQ0jQ/Xkfw0He_9RI/AAAAAAAAXk0/2t8ss_NkGtYdNiE9O3F_ZBOJyhDtauJPgCEwYBhgL/s400/07.jpg" style="border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 4px;" width="331" /></a></div>This book is published by <a href="https://www.isolapress.com/" style="color: #5588aa; text-decoration-line: none;">Isola Press</a>.

Renowned for well-made, good quality, simple cut clothing with interesting fabrics which is easy to wear. There is often a splash of vibrant colour, a floral print or the signature multi-coloured stripes. Paul Smith now has 19 shops and concessions in the UK and 200 shops worldwide with the business still based where it was founded, in Nottingham.<br /><br />This is the lookbook for the Spring Summer 2016 collection.

Unusually, the note was issued in Leeds, and signed by Horace G. Bowen the Bank of England’s chief cashier from 1893 to 1902.
“This is a great note,” said Andrew Pattison, Noonans’ head of banknotes.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8Gg9IX158n02_gNHhVH-zI0rECK70KnJLQ2iAIOsBRYUoDO1rLC4weQ7-8X77oUfe4t8VuAsgYDgyXUWjHlHOdgLin1OvehFpaF559fCuwb-TmXOTEsg8Qtww_9_BVyKV-jS0LDz-zJSLUoPRyK3BUW3N90Nma591JGkPSSuqNFhM6wBHD0uw2eCdOFtg/s1120/33.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1120" data-original-width="750" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8Gg9IX158n02_gNHhVH-zI0rECK70KnJLQ2iAIOsBRYUoDO1rLC4weQ7-8X77oUfe4t8VuAsgYDgyXUWjHlHOdgLin1OvehFpaF559fCuwb-TmXOTEsg8Qtww_9_BVyKV-jS0LDz-zJSLUoPRyK3BUW3N90Nma591JGkPSSuqNFhM6wBHD0uw2eCdOFtg/s320/33.jpg" width="214" /></a></div><br />
“Very few Bowen notes are in private hands, especially from this exceptionally rare Leeds branch.
"The York hand stamp shows part of the journey of the note, issued in Leeds and paid into a bank at some point in York.”
Before coming to its present owner, the note was sold by British businessman and collector, David Kirch, who at one point had assembled the UK’s largest collection of provincial banknotes.
Pattison added: “This is not the first Leeds note that Noonans has sold. An extremely rare £500 note dated 1936 was sold for a hammer price of £24,000 in March of this year.”
The £5 Leeds note will go up for sale alongside several other rare notes, including an 1862 £5 note, valued at £10,000–£15,000 and a £50 note from 1845, valued at £15,000–£20,000.
A very early example of a £2 note will also be up for sale, dated to 1798, and is expected to fetch up to £16,000.
All four notes were printed at the Bank of England’s central london Threadneedle Street printworks, where all paper notes were printed from 1791 to 1917, when printing moved to the former Lunatic Hospital of St Luke’s in Old Street. <div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2jhjO5nHEpybg2qNWXqwdJ-5pIArmpGw9XmUoWkMUxWoEln2tUHZq1-_K7OJD803dSfKPFHEAM6qVEJMmy2SyUZQD2Ag-cGkMOxIyNUL68bPgDgGZuxRaOjOREX5VWX16L2jOBvrKF93gE3BR0F2T_AD9bwtSCJ4jJjKKkcgaFCRi4jCu1ya4hs4B_LE7/s800/bank-of-england-horace-g-bowen-5-leeds-please-credit-noonans.webp" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="450" data-original-width="800" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2jhjO5nHEpybg2qNWXqwdJ-5pIArmpGw9XmUoWkMUxWoEln2tUHZq1-_K7OJD803dSfKPFHEAM6qVEJMmy2SyUZQD2Ag-cGkMOxIyNUL68bPgDgGZuxRaOjOREX5VWX16L2jOBvrKF93gE3BR0F2T_AD9bwtSCJ4jJjKKkcgaFCRi4jCu1ya4hs4B_LE7/w400-h225/bank-of-england-horace-g-bowen-5-leeds-please-credit-noonans.webp" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Image credit: Noonans</span></td></tr></tbody></table></div><div> By 1920, the former hospital had been fully converted into a recognisably modern printworks, with concrete floors, three large machinery halls and amenities for staff.

French folding with a material like Marazion Ultra 90gsm feels fantastic because the weight of the material lets the pages flop and flow beautifully. The 8pp cover (pictured below) on Starfine 200gsm contributes to the soft feel. </span></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0ul5jFm5w3w/Ubd4S2OnyKI/AAAAAAAAJsQ/hJRK73TI8WA/s1600/amc_no4_spread9.jpg" style="color: #5588aa; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" height="265" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0ul5jFm5w3w/Ubd4S2OnyKI/AAAAAAAAJsQ/hJRK73TI8WA/s400/amc_no4_spread9.jpg" style="border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 4px;" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;">The picture below shows the foredge with the "french-folded" text</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Om8_BJleFx8/Ub9TQHwAl-I/AAAAAAAAJt4/GtEqygHdQos/s1600/abbb.JPG" style="color: #5588aa; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" height="298" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Om8_BJleFx8/Ub9TQHwAl-I/AAAAAAAAJt4/GtEqygHdQos/s400/abbb.JPG" style="border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 4px;" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;">The book is printed by a Belgian printer, <a href="https://www.diekeure.be/printing/en/">Die Keure</a>, who are based in Bruges. They are one of the most renowned European book printers and they print for many of the high end publishers in Europe. The print and binding is superb on this book. It is printed CMYK throughout but most of the images have a mono/sepia reproductions and it's hard to get the consistency of look and feel in one publication from multiple image sources but this is an admirable result.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;">The designer is Melanie Mues, who I have worked with for many years.
