Card Catalog: 30 Notecards: 30 Notecards from the Library of Congress

A box of cards (with envelopes) which are copies of the original library index cards. Each card is 5x3 inches which is a standard small size so you can easily find more if you want to add your own notes. You could post the originals to literary minded friends. I prefer to keep the set - it also includes alphabet dividers- to store my records of books I have read/plan to read. The box is, as mentioned by other reviewers, made of cardboard coated with paper. However, it is a lot more attractive than the usual plastic index card boxes. No one would seriously expect an antiquated oak box for the money. Many items of stationary storage, like box files, are made of cardboard coated with paper. It makes an attractive desk top addition with room for quite a few more cards if you get the indexing bug. A set of four would look very cute stacked together.

This set of 'book catalogue' notecards are well printed on good quality card, and are presented in a sturdy cardboard drawer. Would recommend!

Nowhere in the description does it say it’s not wood. And you’d have to really be enlarging and scanning the photos to realise it’s not wood. I wasn’t expecting mahogany or anything but equally I wasn’t expecting cardboard. It should be mentioned in the description.

I love these. I feel that whoever designed these did so with me in mend. I am using these as party invites and was initially concerned by their size but actually was able to write a lot more on them than expected.

Really different and look great in my library, glad i bought them.

Total rip off, was expecting an oak box or at least oak effect wood. But no. Cardboard! No mention of this in the description, just says "oak". Utter waste of money, very unhappy.

This product (box) is made out of cardboard. You can't tell that in the photos and it says colour is oak. Very misleading. I thought I was getting a real wooden box.

it's a printed cardboard box and the handle is a fake. it's just printed.

I received these notecards today, and they are perfect! They come in a little cardboard box that is an excellent replica of an old-fashioned library card box, and I love the little library notecards and envelopes that come inside. I will be using these little cards as thank-you notes for clients who buy the book lovers' gift baskets I sell. The cards on the backside have a little space to write a short note, and the envelope is just about the same size as the little note cards. They are a lot of fun!

Estoy muy decepcionada, pensé que era un cajón de madera... es una caja de cartón forrada con una calcomanía que imita la madera desgastada de un catálogo de biblioteca. Lo único que vale la pena, son las copias de fichas de catálogo de la LC, con anotaciones de antiguos bibliotecarios...

Ein Geschenk für meine Freundin, das super angekommen ist. Die Kiste ist zwar nicht aus Holz (seht auch so in der Beschreibung), aber trotzdem sehr wertig gemacht. Sehr stabilie Pappe. Ein Hightlight für jeden bibliophilen Vintage-Fan.

I bought these to use as thank you cards for people. The old-fashioned look to them is very aesthetic, and these cards are very popular amongst my friends. The container they come in is also adorable.
