Vintage 1962 Annette Mystery Book Journal | One of a Kind
Description
A true piece of vintage Disney history, transformed by hand into a one-of-a-kind journal and keepsake.
This journal was created from an original 1962 Walt Disney’s Annette and the Mystery at Moonstone Bay book, published by Whitman Publishing Company. Rather than covering up its history, I preserved many of the original pages, illustrations, typography, and even the handwritten inscription from a previous owner.
The original book has been carefully taken apart and rebuilt with a beautiful turquoise metal binding, creating a journal that combines authentic mid-century nostalgia with plenty of space to make it your own.
Throughout the journal, original pages from the 1962 book are mixed with new writing pages, so pieces of Annette’s story appear as you move through your own.
Inside this journal:

Because this journal was created from an authentic book that is more than 60 years old, its age and wear are part of what makes it special. You will see discoloration, handwriting, worn edges, markings, creases, and other evidence of its previous life. These are not considered flaws. They are part of the history of the original book and make this journal truly one of a kind.
The journal pictured is the actual journal you will receive. There is only one.
Handmade in Los Angeles by Lekish Did It, where nostalgic books are given a whole new story.
A special find for vintage Disney collectors, Annette Funicello fans, horse lovers, journal lovers, mid-century collectors, writers, and anyone who loves giving old books a second life.
