Description
Kulla-Gulla is the orphan girl from Martha Sandwall-Bergström's Swedish children's series, the books a whole generation here grew up on. Three of those covers came out of the same second-hand shop on the same day in October 2026, and all three were rebuilt into notebooks. This is the first of them, Kulla-Gulla håller sitt löfte.
22 sheets of Hahnemühle Expression — 300 g/m² (140 lb), cold press, 100% cotton, acid free, hand-torn deckle edge — hand-sewn and cased into the original boards. Slim on purpose: at this weight, a thin book is a book you actually carry and finish. The three sisters are also offered together, which saves you two parcels' worth of shipping.

This cover comes from a second-hand book that was already damaged inside. Expect honest wear on the boards — faded cloth, bumped corners, marks from decades of handling. None of it affects how the notebook works, and all of it is the reason the cover still exists.
