Delivered has Amazon as usual quite quickly. And even for the holidays. Thanks for this. That the copies are different in quality and delivery very, I can not confirm. So far, my books were always properly. However, I've never had this little specimen. The paper itself is fine. Lange, no fine art paper. For watercolors or watercolors I'd still recommend the book by Moleskine watercolor or another company. For sketches and notes the quality of the paper sufficient should be pure. But not for illustrations, the scanned and digitized later. Pocket is here now really Pocket. I have my degree, although looked before I ordered the book was then very disappointed, lost as much of the actual workspace. I would recommend to the variant "Large" to order. So a stay but then a little more freedom. The paper is slightly yellowish and very pleasant to look at, because I'm not a fan of industry white paper. Before buying it is advisable one to look at the small version. Personally, I did not become a friend of this format.
