Big Chief Tablet

The Big Chief tablet was a popular writing notebook for several generations of young children in the United States. It utilized newsprint paper and featured widely spaced lines, easier to write in for those learning to write. Its prominence, though, was the cover's representation of a native American in full headdress, hence "Big Chief."

Famous quotes containing the words big, chief and/or tablet:

    We have no prairies
    To slice a big sun at evening—
    Everywhere the eye concedes to
    Encroaching horizon,
    Is wooed into the cyclops’ eye
    Of a tarn.
    Seamus Heaney (b. 1939)

    Eyes—the head’s chief of police. They watch and make mental notes. A blind person is like a city abandoned by the authorities. On sad days they cry. In these carefree times they weep only from tender emotions.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    As man, as beast, as an ephemeral fly begets, Godhead begets Godhead,
    For things below are copies, the Great Smaragdine Tablet said.
    Yet all must copy copies, all increase their kind....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
