General note
This item is a large (10" by 16") journal completely hand-written by the Archers, begun in December 1951 about their forays into printing. Entries are incredibly detailed (down to the time of day and number of hours a step took) and demonstrative pieces of printed ephemera are pasted in with their corresponding entries.
