Indonesian blankbook (3)
The cover of a pocket-sized (10 x 16 cm) Indonesian blankbook. This particular example was purchased in Jogjakarta in 2014, and probably manufactured around the same time.
The paper on this example is particularly intricate and vibrant, unlike the subdued hues of the other books featured here. Nonetheless, the influence of Batik patterns can still be felt.
The front cover bears the name SERITI, probably the maker's name. This particular blank book has a space for the user to fill in information on its front cover. Such a feature is fairly rare in blankbooks I have come across.
