2014 Northwest Bus Pilots Calendar!

Post by hambone » Fri Nov 15, 2013 1:11 pm

Just imagine a lovely full-color calendar featuring hard working buses doing what they do best! Well it's on the way, what a great idea for Christmas, don't you think? Why not order 12 or 13?

All of the photographs are by me, Bob, in stunning color. No expense was spared. Choicest ingredients! Who knows, maybe YOUR bus is featured!

The calendars will be reasonably priced at $15, and will help a needy local artist survive the cold winter.
Thank you, please let me know if you're interested.

No response, too late in the year, I'm thinking of doing it for 2015, have the photos all picked out. Is Maupin too early for selling calendars?

$15 a fair price, or too steep?

I could do either, but 12 would probably be cheaper. Maybe $12?

Yeah I'd say $12-$13 for a 12 month is fair.

Don't forget about this project. It's always nice to have a 13 month calendar, so you get the current years December before it rolls over. (makes a great X-mas gift)

I have all the photos picked out, and got quotes from print shops...I dunno there hasn't been a hell of a lot of interest to justify the expense.
I also feel bad about charging my friends! Especially if I'm using their bus to make cabbage. Excuses yeah.
Thank you for the motivation I appreciate it.
