In 1943, the U.S. government and the American publishing industry collaborated to create what came to be known as the “Armed Services Editions.” Over the next few years, more than 120 million books representing over 1,200 titles were printed and distributed to overseas troops during the Second World War. The books were printed in an odd horizontal format with bright, primary-colored covers — and that was what caught our attention.\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rich-text\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe created the “1943” Memo Books to mimic the ASE’s horizontal orientation.

But while mocking up prototypes, we realized the short-edge binding also works great for a vertical notebook! So it’s up to you, there’s a horizontal cover on one side, and a vertical cover on the other. Whether you want to flip the top of your Field Notes open to take notes as you interview a witness, or spread the pages wide for a panoramic sketch of a crime scene, the 1943 “Two-Way” Edition is the right tool for your investigation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"img--right\"\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rich-text\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou’ll find bright \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/field-notes-prod\/images\/products\/FNC68_1943_Front_AMainProductPhoto.jpg\" class=\"js-image-popup\"\u003ere\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/field-notes-prod\/images\/products\/FNC69_1943_Back_A.jpg\" class=\"js-image-popup\"\u003ed\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/field-notes-prod\/images\/products\/FNC68_1943_Front_C.jpg\" class=\"js-image-popup\"\u003ey\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/field-notes-prod\/images\/products\/FNC69_1943_Back_B.jpg\" class=\"js-image-popup\"\u003eello\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/field-notes-prod\/images\/products\/FNC68_1943_Front_C.jpg\" class=\"js-image-popup\"\u003ew\u003c\/a\u003e, and\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/field-notes-prod\/images\/products\/FNC69_1943_Back_C.jpg\" class=\"js-image-popup\"\u003ebl\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/field-notes-prod\/images\/products\/FNC68_1943_Front_B.jpg\" class=\"js-image-popup\"\u003eue\u003c\/a\u003e books in each 3-Pack.
