Rover 800 2016 calendar?

Post by Tanya » Mon Sep 21, 2015 2:36 pm

Sorry, I was trying to post this in general chat, but couldn't work out how to do it - IT's not my strong point. However, having made three calendars in the past year, I've mastered that, well with the help of the very patient people at the end of the print company's helpline!

Anyway, do you any of you know if anyone is doing a Rover 800 calendar for next year? If there is one great, but if not I'm happy to do one. If I did one, I would hope to have it ready for the October proposed Rover 800 Club meeting at Cowley.

I would be doing it as an individual and selling them at cost, so there is no profit to worry about. I would also take on the risk if they didn't sell and paper my front room with them or something!

Obviously if I went ahead, I would need 800 photos. I would try and show as much variety as possible in the calendar.

I would be aiming to go to print on Friday morning, so it's a tight time frame.

If someone else has a calendar in hand then great, if not I'm happy to do it.

Sounds like a nice idea - I can't contribute any photographs I'm afraid (I would imagine that smartphone pictures of my car during various repairs won't make the cut!) but good luck with it.

Any views are welcome. Having a good variety of cars and different types of shots have worked well in the previous calendars that I've previous made.

Please send photos to tanyafield@supanet.com and if possible by this Thursday (24th) as I would like to go to print on Friday morning. Thank you :)

Please do send me any photo you have.

As for pricing, I'm still thinking as it depends on which calendar I go for (opinions welcome). I'm thinking of printing 50, and hope between the meeting at Cowley, the NEC and posting them out to people that I should shift 50. Based on 50, here are the prices:

This calendar - https://www.stressfreeprint.co.uk/a4-la ... calendars/ would be £5.46 each
This one - https://www.stressfreeprint.co.uk/a3-po ... calendars/ would be £4.22 each
and this one - https://www.stressfreeprint.co.uk/a4-po ... calendars/ would be £3.22 each

I have ordered the first two for previous calendars, and for easy of posting/size of photos, I prefer the more expensive one. However, some of the photos coming through are quite low res, so maybe the cheapest option might be the best.

Oh, and I only want to use Stress Free as I'm an IT phobic and they're now used to me and can cope with my endless phone calls! They also did me a very good deal for the Pride of Longbridge calendar.

I'm short of photos of groups of 800s, so would be grateful if people could send me some of those. Maybe some from PoL?

No problem, although I'm getting 50 printed so I think there will be plenty for everyone :)

Send me an email - tanyafield@supanet.com and I'll put you on the list.
