Hobonichi Pencil Board [Naoki Ishikawa] Denali in the Midnight Sun #2
Out of the Hobonichi original accessories, the Hobonichi Pencil Board is one of the most popular items. Keeping it underneath the page you’re writing on allows the reinforcement to provide an enjoyable writing experience. They fit perfectly to the size of the techo book, and will prevent your pen from sliding on the page, and not leave indentations on the opposite page, making for a comfortable writing experience.
This pencil board features a piece by Naoki Ishikawa titled “Denali in the Midnight Sun #2.” Denali, North America’s highest peak, attracts people from all over the world. This is a shot of the Cessna that the climbers who are aiming to reach the summit of the mountain ride to the Kahiltna Glacier at the foot of the mountain. It is said that only “bush pilots,” who are skilled in landing on rough terrain, are allowed to fly this Cessna.
One side is labeled by millimetre to act as a metric ruler, and a “Today” tab on the corner marks the current page if you’d like to use it as a bookmark as well. Try the Hobonichi Pencil Board for yourself and you’ll see how great it is to use.
