Up for sale is this wonderfully strange and gloriously retro notebook from M.L. King Jr. High School in Albany, Georgia, featuring a Raider mascot who looks less like a student athlete and more like a pirate who failed algebra three times and now demands lunch money in the parking lot.
This beauty includes:
Original school cover artwork
Loose-leaf style binding
Blank lined notebook pages inside
Handy measurement/conversion reference sheet
Enough vintage school energy to instantly smell like pencil shavings and cafeteria pizza
Condition:Definitely vintage. Shows wear, age spots, discoloration, and signs of surviving several decades of lockers, backpacks, and possibly one emotionally exhausting chemistry class.
Inside pages appear mostly unused, which means one of two things happened:
A student bought this and immediately gave up on education.
Someone intended to take notes but got distracted drawing Van Halen logos and writing “KIM RULES” in bubble letters.
Perfect for:
Vintage paper collectors
School memorabilia collectors
Retro office décor
People who miss the days when school mascots looked ready to invade a small coastal village
FEATURES:
Approx. size shown in photos
Raider mascot with eye patch and thousand-yard stare
Blank pages ready for journaling, sketching, poetry, conspiracy theories, or writing the screenplay to your low-budget 1987 cable-access masterpiece
Honestly, modern notebooks have no courage anymore.
Back then, even school supplies looked like they had unresolved emotional issues and a probation officer.
