ZR-1 Calander?

[1990 quasar blue]

I'm not sure how feasible this is but, is anybody interested in making a calendar? I was thinking that we could send in some pix with a little info about the car, and have one made up. It's just a thought, and I don't have any idea how much something like that would cost. Any interest or suggestions?

I am interested. I think it is a great idea. I have a client who made a calendar of his art work (low volume production, but very nice quality). I will try to find out where he got it made, after I get back from vacation.

We've made a calendar of our Corvette club members' cars...12 one for each month for the past few years. After we collected the 12 pictures and complete editing, croping, adjustment light/dark etc, we put them on a cd after. Then, give the cd to Staples (Office Max was also priced about the same) and ended up with them doing all the work, giving us proofs, etc and shipping the beautiful calendars to us, I think 100 calendars cost about $9-$10 each.
The hardest part was getting good pictures with big enuff size, pixels, to get quality pictures, and collecting the $$ to place the order paid in advance. As I remember it the office product stores start reducing printing service prices starting about Nov 1.

That's cheaper than I would have thought.
What if we did this through the Registry? Maybe include it in next years membership at an additional fee.

That gives us plenty of time to start snapping pix.

Thanks

I'd bet Staples, Office Max or any similar offic supply store that does calendars would love to cut a great deal for us if we did it thru the buying power of the Registry. Think of the advertising exposure they'd get by doing our calendars with ZR-1 pictures!
When we did the calendars last time every body in the store and the staff where they did the printing ALL knew of our VETTES and drooled over the pictures. Whenever I'd go to the store, they'd page by saying " Printing services, the CORVETTE guy is here for you"

Sounds great. What else do we have to do other than wash and wax? I like the mod list idea as well.

Count me in !!! I will start planning the Photo shoot for my 91 - It will be all pretty and shinny - Who should we send the Photos too - ?? At any price it will be a really nice calender to have.

I would like to thank all of you that are really putting this together and taking this upon yourselves - It is above and beyond the call of duty !!

Thank you All !!!
