Steve, I think I could fill in the gaps.

Since the TWOA calendar was mentioned, there is the link to order:

Proceeds are going to bring Harris Mann to the VTR National convention this fall, to commemorate the 40th anniversary of "The Shape".

This is a bigger pic of the photos selected for the TWOA calendar. There are some nice shots.

Hey, I really like that Pageant blue DHC. I took that shot back when it could actually move! I still haven't fixed the clutch fork.

Hi,

Great shots, I did see them in the news letter ( excellent edition well done to all involved [8D] ) but a little on the small side! I see a few of Michelle's shots made it in it. Will order mine later.

Cheers John

Roy have you thought about a calendar full of Michelles photos.

I can push the calendar in the TSSC Courier if one is being put together. I do think we also need to think about the anniversary coming up and having a larger book/calendar or something with lots of photos in to remember it by.

Chris, I first thought of doing a calendar of Michelle's finest work a couple of years ago and have been saving some of her her best pictures in a file.

We need to be a little careful here as we don't want to be swamped with two or three calendars all at once for 2015. I like the sound of a book, but can't see that getting off the ground, far to costly for the TR7 world. A Commemorative poster might be a better option featuring an early Speke car and a very late Solihull car alongside one another.[8D]

Someone mentioned the photos in the calendar and the size of the contact sheet attached above. I've attached links to the contact sheet in the largest size I have, and the sample page, as well as a link to order calendars if you wish. Congratulations to the individuals who had their car(s) selected. It was very difficult to choose this year, and our printers standards for the photographs were also much more stringent. The contact sheet really doesn't do the photos justice. The photos in this calendar are beautiful. Some of these photos looked like they were models of cars instead of actual vehicles because the photos were so breathtakingly spectacular.

You can order calendars at http://www.triumphwedgeowners.org/twoacalendar.html but I suggest you not wait a terribly long time. We've already sold almost half of the 250 that were ordered. If you want a large order, contact Jim directly at president@triumphwedgeowners.org and he will work with you to get a batch sent over to save the shipping cost to get them across the pond.

Here is the contact sheet that I have -

And here is the sample page that I have - http://i1114.photobucket.com/albums/k524/elsberry/2014%20Calendar/calendarPage_zpsd7e1f091.jpg

I just received my copy of the 2014 TWOA calendar. Very well done! Great photos and the whole thing has a very nice quality feel. The print quality and heavy paper are excellent. Congratulations to the people who put this together; great work!
