This cover is an homage to Shigesato Itoi's 1994 Super Nintendo game, Mother 2 (EarthBound in North America).
Mr. Saturn Tiles features a cute tiled pattern lined up like pixel art. The Mr. Saturn sprites make up its walking animation, and the image on the cover is a photograph of actual tiles lined up into the design. The 3D effect of the tiles make the Mr. Saturns feel as if they’re actually there. You’ll have fun every day when you’ve got these four Mr. Saturns by your side.
The interior includes the Mother 2 logo.
The 2020 edition Mother 2 techo series, including Mr. Saturn Tiles, includes a bookmark with the Cast design from the hit 2016 Hobonichi Techo cover.
This Mother 2 Adhesive Bookmark contains adhesive on the bottom of the bookmark so it can stick out from the top of your page. The bookmark contains a wide area of adhesive so it stays firmly in place when stuck. The pattern is printed in gray so that you can write on the paper. These bookmarks are great to pair with a Mother 2 cover.
*This cover is from the Hobonichi Techo 2020 lineup.

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.
Each item is individually assembled and sewn by hand by a factory worker. Best efforts are made to ensure consistent sizes and specifications, but there may be slight differences.
This material is first printed or dyed and then later sewn onto the cover. While colors are designed to be consistent, there may be uneven coloring or slight shade variances between covers. This may also happen across a single cover, such as a pocket compared to the rest of the cover. In addition, on rare occasions, there may be small black or white dots visible on the print. This is an unavoidable aspect of the manufacturing process.
Due to the structure of the cover that opens flat 180 degrees, exterior stitching areas may appear puckered and lining material may be loose.
Due to the characteristics of the print and product material, the sewing process may expose the white of the original material around the stitches.
The silk print may eventually peel or come off with daily use.
The pen holders are rigid at first, making it difficult to insert pens. You can speed up the breaking-in process by rolling the pen holders in your hand.
This cover does not contain an outer pocket.
The pen holder is designed to perfectly fit the 12.2 mm (0.48”) diameter Jetstream pen offered as a free Hobonichi Store Exclusive. Pens with certain shapes and materials may be difficult to pull through the holder. The holder can fit pens up to 13.5 mm (0.53”) in diameter.
Please avoid storing your product in hot, humid places or placing it atop other objects for long periods of time as this may result in lower quality and color stains.
