Blackwing Volume 710 Slate Notebook
The Blackwing 710 is a tribute to Jerry Garcia and his fusion of visual and musical expression. This limited-edition medium Slate notebook features Jerry Garcia’s “Prisms” painting on its cover. With 160 pages of 100 gsm blank paper, this notebook comes loaded with a limited-edition soft Blackwing 710 pencil in the elastic loop—so you are always prepared for when inspiration strikes.
Though he is best known as the lead guitarist and vocalist for the Grateful Dead, Jerry Garcia was much more than a musician. His house at 710 Ashbury Street marked the heart of the enlightenment and expression that pulsed through San Francisco in the 1960s. It also fueled Jerry’s profound exploration into painting and visual arts.
Like his guitar playing, Jerry’s sketches and paintings seem to meander on the canvas, taking unexpected turns before changing shape entirely. They show us that improvisation isn’t just reserved for the stage and that our ideas shouldn’t be bound by what’s expected of us.
