Our Touring Past

2018 Vintage Caravan Calendar.
Its that time of the year again. We are starting to organise the Australian 2018 vintage caravan calendar and we are asking for photo submissions for the calendar.
The photos submitted ( if possible ) should show either your vintage van or your vintage van and period tow car, with the least amount of modern stuff shown in the photo as possible.You must be the owner of the photo and out of the photos submitted 12 will be chosen by the "arty" one in the family (my wife Linda).
You can email the photos to thetrodler@yahoo.com.au. Oh forgot to mention that if your photo is used in the calendar you will receive a calendar for FREE.
Thanks.
Richard.

Hello Richard..
Aaahhh yes .. a timely reminder that time marches on ..It wont be long before i am taking down my 2017 Our Touring past EZ-2C calender from the mantlepiece and sitting by the letterbox waiting for the 2018 edition to arrive by post with our 98 year old mailman on his speedwell 28 inch with 3 speed sturmey archer hub gears.


I can only get just a bit "Arty Farty" with my box brownie....
Will do my best with the sepia photographs..
Then i will place them in a brown paper bag .. purchase a stamp... lick and stick and then post them to you..

I will leave it up to you to make the images electronic ... or may i suggest placing a magnify glass in front of the electronic device to enlarge image to A4.....
Please ensure you set this up the right way around??.. last time i attempted it i had an image of what appeared to be a large round brown pizza..
On closer investigation i had taken a 8 x 4 photo of my right eye...

I recon that lovely Hunter Minor from Warren will get a run.

The calendars are just about ready to hit the printers, just had to wait for permission on one photo.
I will have 300 printed and I only have about 50 that arnt spoken for at this stage so if your interested in a calendar or ten let me know now, they are my usual $15.00 each plus postage.(postage discount on multiple orders.)
Cheers.

Sounds great Richard

The OTP calendars are become a bit of a Christmas tradition...

Just thinking... How good would it be if we could get Christmas Cards of our vans made up by the bloke that prints the calendars .
Could use the photos submitted for your calander by the subscribers here on OTP.
I for one would be happy to help with the costs of printing

Meanwhile let us know when the calendars are ready for order /payment etc.
