MOTHER 2NessWeeks Hardcover Book

MOTHER 2 covers return to the lineup for 2017 after successful 2015 and 2016 designs. This year’s MOTHER 2 covers include Ness, 1994, and Memories.

This cover features a blue-purple necktie material printed with Ness, the main character of MOTHER 2. (Western audiences know the video game as EarthBound, which was released for the Super Nintendo in 1995.) The brave young hero makes all his different poses across the cover, which includes some art that was only available in the Japanese version of the game! The small-scale pattern fits well on the necktie material and makes it easy to carry around.

The book is lightweight and the permanently-attached hard cover is made with the same textured, shiny fabric used in neckties.

The MOTHER 2 logo is also printed on the inside corner of the book cover.

見返し隅のロゴ

This cover includes a large Mr. Saturn sticker as a free bonus. The sticker has strong, fade-resistant colors, and the material lightly repels water, making it perfect to apply to durable items like suitcases.

Please Read Before You Buy

In order to provide you with the most satisfaction for your product, we've compiled a list of warnings, potential issues, and tips to keep in mind for this particular product.
Please be sure to read this information carefully before placing your order.

Pattern alignment varies by cover

The patterned fabric has not been aligned to a specific layout, so the placement of each design will vary by cover. The cover will not be an exact replica of the one in the product photographs.

Test fountain pens before regular use

The Hobonichi Techo's Tomoe River paper is designed to prevent bleed-through, but some fountain pens and water-based ink pens are not compatible with this paper. When switching to a new pen, we recommend testing the pen somewhere in the book, such as the back memo pages, to see if the ink bleeds through or takes an especially long time to dry.

Imprinted year numbers may peel

The numbers of the year are stamped onto the cover in gold leaf or other colors, so strong rubbing or everyday use may cause the numbers to peel off.

Exterior pattern may be slightly uneven

The pattern on the cover material may become slightly uneven during the production process. This is an unavoidable aspect of the process.

Sharp objects may unravel threads

Be careful not to catch sharp items such as a pen tip under the threads as they may unravel.

Color may vary slightly based on viewing screen

The color of the product may be slightly different in actuality than compared to how it appeared on a computer or smartphone screen.
