I had seen some portable writing desks on FPN but nothing in real life. I know it is rather modern but I really liked it and could not resist it at $4 (it is used). When I picked it up out of the bottom of a bin, I thought it was some sort of portfolio, then I opened it and immediately recognized it for what it is. It is slightly larger than a portfolio and has a hard board backing that can sit on your lap to provide a very nice writing surface anywhere you are as long as you can sit down comfortably. The pocket in the lid holds a #16 Rhodia pad just fine with room for more. It is a nice black leather and the writing surface is a felt like material. Pockets in the lid also make nice business card stowage areas or a place for small notepaper and a small photograph. The second photo shows it sitting on my lap.
