Are the measurements in the specs section for the dimensions of the cover, edge-to-edge, or for the largest notebook that will fit into it? In terms of paper size, what does this translate to? B5? A5?
Looks like a nifty, custom item. It would be great to have a better idea of what common notebooks will/won't fit into it, and what accommodations should be made if trying to fit a notebook that might be a bit smaller than the optimal size.
Thanks.
Cheers.
PS. I suppose it would help if I had read the previous post, re: what fits - Doh!, but I'm still curious about the rest.

This is sized for those commonly found composition books -- like the popular Mead "Marble" books.

rbrandtFor those who like a nicer version of the notebook when you're ready for refills, Levenger.com sells them (called Notabilia) and they're very nice. I've been using one of their leather covers for many years and it's showing its wear. . . Plus more expensive and not as good a color selection as this. I'm joining for a new cover. (If it's a faux pas to mention someone else's refill notebooks I apologize - but for this community, you might sell more of the covers if people know there's a nicer refill option than the Mead composition books. That's why I mentioned it.)

LaraThe Notabillas look very nice. Thanks for the tip. I've been stockpiling a lot of paper -- mostly French and Japanese brands (Rhodia, Tomoe River, Banditapple Carnet, Apica) in all sorts of sizes. None are of the composition book variety, so I ordered a couple of books from Staples in their Sustainable Earth line. These are interesting notebooks (I got both composition and spiral bound books) -- the paper is 80% sugarcane-based -- made from the waste of sugar production. It has a very interesting, sort of parchment-like feel, pretty thin but does well with fountain pen -- show through, but no bleed through (both sides very usable). And ... the books cost $5.29 (they were just on sale for $3.00). The local Staples doesn't carry them as stock -- but they can be ordered online and sent to your local store in a day without having to pay shipping costs. The covers are of a heavy rough kraft stock that is not so nice to the touch -- which is why I am going for one of these covers.

This kind of product would be much more interesting to non-US participants if they were sized to Metric instead of Imperial.

NotABotAnd if they were, then the US customers would be out of luck. They seem to offer a pretty good variety here - I have had to forego some offers because they're not "standard" for me. ;-) Hope the next one works for you!

Is the notebook ruled or blank? Can it fit a A5 notebook?

I have this size/ structure item from another purveyor and I've loved using it. If this is close to the same quality, the 20-person option is a great price.
