“I’m a list maker/note taker during every daylight hour and sometimes in the middle of the night. You never know when a million dollar idea might tiptoe across your cerebral cortex, so I’m set on ready. Use it as a travel notebook, journal, diary, executive notebook, gift, to-do list holder, etc. I’ve used this journal every day for many years.”
– Colonel Littleton
Available in our Vintage Brown full-grain polished American Steerhide, our pocket journal comes with 50 lined Col. Littleton note cards which fit into a tabbed leather holder and a 60-page lined register. (Col. Littleton custom cards and registers may be reordered.)

No. 23 Pocket Journal 
We are committed to producing quality, handcrafted products that showcase our time-honored standards of excellence and deep respect for the Americana tradition. Col. Littleton products go through rigorous testing and numerous quality inspections before being shipped to our customers. Should you receive a Col. Littleton product that is defective in materials or workmanship, you can count on us to make it right. Our guarantee is limited to the cost of the product itself. It also does not cover normal wear and tear. We feel if you just plain “wore it out,” you got your money’s worth. Also, we cannot be responsible for an item which has suffered through alteration, damage due to improper cleaning, improper use, mishandling or accident. If we made a mistake in personalizing your product or if the product is defective in materials or workmanship, of course we’ll replace it. Otherwise, personalized products are not returnable.
Leather is a passion for me. There are more kinds of leather and leather processing out there than you can shake a stick at. You can mold leather into just about any shape or form. You can make every hide look just alike. You can dye it green, blue or even pink. You can apply a finish, coat it, spray it or make it look slick and shiny. That’s not what we’re about at Col. Littleton. To me the beauty is in the naturalness of the leather. People always comment to me about the special “feel” of our leather and how it becomes even more beautiful after it has some wear on it. It’s all about our leather process. When you buy Col. Littleton leather goods, you’re buying, for the most part, full-grain American vegetable-tanned steerhide that has received a minimum of alteration. We don’t apply a finish to hide character markings. The way I see it, every marking tells a story and covering them robs the piece of its life and character.
I see a real resurgence in the country today for products made in America. Our focus is to design and create products that speak to the time-honored traditions that have made this country great such as handmade craftsmanship, authentic rich leathers and quality workmanship. There’s a nostalgic feel about the products we make . . . most of them could have been made 100 years ago and many are made using turn-of-the-20th-century methodology and machinery. Our products are true Americana; forged as our forefathers intended by people who care and take pride in making a beautiful product.
My son is a Midshipman studying Marine Engineering at the US Merchant Marine Academy. He is requried to write down and know a wide variety on information everyday in all types of extreme conditions. All the pocket notebooks he used would tear and simply would not last under the extreme environment and demands of basic training and Marine Engineering day to day operations. I knew that the No. 23 would do the trick! He states “There is not really a better alternative and it’s something special” in such an austere environment.
He carries his No. 23 with everyday and often gets asked where he got it. There is nothing better. I liked it so much I bought one for myself in American Aligator
My pocket journal has seen multiple foreign countries and most of the US states during my professional career. It has served me well as a depository of business and personal notes along the way
Gorgeous craftsmanship on this little journal! The stitching is tight and neat, and has clearly been done by hand rather than machine. The leather is soft but in no way loose or floppy. Functionally, this should fit in any standard pocket (I tested it with medium Stafford dress shirt and some Wrangler work shirts). Although I can only leave a maximum of a five-star rating, the included Moon Pie brings it up to a solid six.
