LeBaron Books are handmade journals by the artist Allison LeBaron. One of the cargo pocket size journals can be seen in the movie, “Seven Days in Utopia.“ Also, one was used in the movie, “Pirates of the Caribbean.” Four large journals were featured on the “Oprah” show, presented to four women writers who she sent to Africa as part of her “My Favorite Book” series.
Each book is custom made and no two books are exactly alike. Every book is made of the finest materials with genuine cow skin leather and 100% cotton rag archival paper. The paper is bound into sections called signatures. Each signature is comprised of approximately 5 sheets folded over to make approximately 100 pages per journal.
Signatures are then hand sewn in to the spine along with a decorative paper fly leaf. There are eleven different types of end sheets to choose from. Detailed pictures and more options can be found on the Materials page. If you would like to add a bead or a coin button, pick one out and order it along with your book. This catalog illustrates some popular journals, however all orders are custom, and you can mix and match leathers with your choice of fly leaf and strap color or strap and button closure. If you find that you have added an item to your shopping cart and want to make a change to your order simply check the remove box, and press "Update" and continue shopping. International orders welcomed. For shipments outside the U.S. send an email to Allison for shipping estimate.
