Well seek and ye shall find.
Happy to come across two cool notebooks today.

| Field Notes, Wm. Cameron & Co., Julius Hyman & Company, with a Pilot Falcon |
The first "farmers' and ranchers' memo book" is from 1958-59 and was made for Wm. Cameron & Co. William Cameron has a fascinating history, and his family donated the land for Cameron Park in Waco, TX. There's even an antique store in Waco called Cameron Trading Company that used to be his home and business headquarters. The notebook measures 5 3/8" x 3 1/8".

Notebook number two is from Julius Hyman & Company from Denver, CO, and is from January, 1951. It's a small notebook at only 4 1/4" x 2 3/8". It's also top-bound, and the pages are perforated for easy tear-out.

| My favorite thing about this notebook is imagining someone handwriting this parting note at the end of each notebook. |
