    You are bidding on a one-of-a-kind, handcrafted journal cover made by Nick Koenigsknecht during the school year of 1999-2000. This is a highly collectable, once in a lifetime offer!

    The sky blue outer cover features a cardboard flap originally used for locking the diary, green color fields drawn with marker, and lively messages written in blue and black ink that read:
    “Nick’s journal”
    “Please do not open if you are not Nick!!!”
    “Don’t read please”
    “Open if you want me to
    hate
    you forever!”
    The vanilla-colored inner cover features abstract, gestural pen drawings in blue and black ink as well as the bold question:
    “Life Lie?”
    Nick Koenigsknecht created this cover of his high school diary long before his career as a prominent art dealer. This highly collectable item clearly suggests a creative predisposition early in life. There is a notable use of distinctly varied line qualities, mixed media, and emphatic phrasing.
    While the exact contents of the diary are undisclosed, Nick divulges something about the material within:
    “(The journal) was this ridiculous book of dicks and poems I was writing while figuring out my gayness. My biggest fear was that someone would look inside so I wrote all sorts of texts on the cover imploring the curious not to.”
