It's that time of year when I start badgering people for photos for the Club Calendar.
I've already had some submissions via email, and I've been busy with the camera at
this years Club Event and the Retro Show, but I'm always after nice pics.
So, landscape orientation please, as hi-res as possible, and preferably pics without
lots of people in, just the car(s) and backdrop.
Ideally I need photos in by the end of September, so please email me with what you
have asap. I need to get it designed and to the printers by mid October, so that they
are printed and ready for the NEC in November.
They are always a limited run of 50, first come first served.

I've had some brilliant photos submitted already, I think David Abraham will
be sending some over from the recent Irish meet up too, and I took plenty
at the Club Event this weekend.
I've spoken to the printer, there will unfortunately be a 5% price rise this year
which is on top of the ever increasing Royal Mail postage prices, but we will
try and keep costs as low as possible.
Phew, the final 13 have been chosen, sorted, and sent to the printer - my
eldest had to help in the end with choosing between the final few pictures.
Hopefully, I'll have the calendars with me by the end of the month/early
October.
Now, usually I get 50 done, and they all sell out by Xmas. If the demand
is there, I'll up it to 60, but I'm wary of ordering too many for obvious
reasons.
Anyway, I'll update in due course with prices and when they will be available.
Thanks again to everyone who sent pictures in, the standard this year has been
incredible.
We only have 60, they are first come, first served, and once they are
sold out that's it.
Now, thanks to Royal Mail price hikes, postage has gone up considerably
since last year - that's out of my control sadly, so if they look more
expensive this year, then this is the reason why.
If you want to collect yours from the Club Stand at the NEC next month,
then that's no problem, let me know how many you want and they will
be put aside for you in a named envelope.
If you are collecting in person, the price is £ 6.75 each.
The following prices include Postage Costs, Paypal Fees, etc and are based on one
item, if you want more then one, I will need to calculate the price with increased
postage.
UK: £9.95
Europe: £12.50
World Zone 1 (South America, Japan, Africa, Asia, etc) £13.95
World Zone 2 (Australia & New Zealand) £14.99
World Zone 3 (USA) £13.99
Paypal is secretary@deloreans.co.uk - this sends a notification to Chris Williams, not
me, so there may be a day or so's delay in shipping them out as I will wait to receive
the email notification from Chris before I can post them out.
Please note, on the picture below, the back cover showing thumbnails is a cropped
representation of each picture, the picture on the calendar page itself is the full one.
My thanks again to David Mayes at Trojan Press for doing these, including finding the
"Rustproof" font for the cover page, he's done a cracking job once again.
I have given a batch of calendars to Rich Hanlon for the NEC next week,
so as I've just had a few orders go out, I've only got 3 left here with me.
Once they are gone, then anyone wanting one will have to wait until after the
NEC weekend so that I can put some aside at the show to bring home with me.
Remember, these are limited stock, and when they are gone, that's it, there won't
be any more!
I'm also getting sent some fab pics already for the 2025 calendar!
Hi Chris, yep I've got all the pre-ordered ones in the box I collected from Claire, she has put them all in envelopes - very organised as always! I also have majority of the non-pre-ordered stock to bring with me. (I had to get them last week, as I'm busy most nights between now and next Thurs!)
