Title: CALENDERS
Post by: FE_UTE on February 14, 2003, 01:20:10 PM
I have just been given an amazing 2002 calender

It is a Dalton Fine Paper calender and has six Holdens
FX..FJ..FC..FB..EH  and HR

It has a description of the printing process and also a model description

On the back cover it has 6 Melbourne based printing companys that were involved in its making

The printing is such that when you run your hand over the prints you can feel the chrome and the smooth feel of the horn emblems.also the hubcaps are like 3D

Check out the CALENDER photos on  http://photo.starblvd.net/feute  

The one I have was hanging in the Board Room of a Perth printer so ther should be some around in other states...worth asking anyhow

That FC is the Grand Champion of the 2001 FE-FC Holden Nationals that Ken McLean built, or I'll eat my hat!

What a fabulous calendar.  I would dearly love one in my collection!  Let me know if you find another one ;D

cheers

Richard, you are correct - I will give you one when I come up for the Nats, I got 2 given to me after the photo shoot.
It was a real problem for me as I hung it on the wall at the start of the year and I just couldnt turn it past June!

The calendar is the most stunning thing I have ever seen, the paper effects are unbelievable.
It was not available to the general public as it was a promotional thing made by the paper company to give away to their clients.
Pity as it would have been a big seller.

Ken

Les,

No it's hardly my handiwork.  See Gary's original post for its story.  My previous comment was to Ken, sorry for any confusion.

cheers

John,  you didn't look closely enough - it's the FB featured and not the EK.
