Cohen Calendar

Post by glyn »

Nobody sent us a calendar for Xmas this year :( so I was sent out to buy one, but was told in no uncertain terms that it was not to be a Leonard Cohen one! :x Does one exist, I don't think so. :roll: Has one ever existed? :? Can someone get one together for 2004? :?:

Awesome possibilities. I want February to be the rectangular one of Leonard sitting at the rectangular, plain, wooden table with his shoes off....the one regarding which Mr. Ed spoofed my emotive response upon seeing it. Jarkko ~ an excellent way to earn some Leonard money, if you have a way to accomplish it sans any conflicts of interest and all that other stuff.

Well I am quite happy with my Mary-Kate and Ashley calendar. I suppose I could find another space on the wall though. Sign me up!

Jarkko, I also would love the opportunity to buy a calender. You have some great photos on the site. Would it be feasible to produce one for us?

I don't normally add to a thread just to say 'me too', but just in case Jarkko might be influenced by the number of responses this generates, I have to say 'me too' (or possibly two!).

I hate to be a killjoy but most of the photos on the site
are copyrighted by various photographers, not available
for any commercial purposes... Also I have wanted to
keep the site as non-commercial as possible - nothing
on sale, no banners and so on. However have to admit
that it would be great to have such a calendar!

Maybe Mr Cohen could allow some of his paintings and lines from songs to be used on such a calendar and the proceeds donated to a charity of his choice?

Do you not have any photos taken by individuals I have a couple I would be happy to donate altho they are nothing special. It is a really good idea. I am sick and tired of the Old Donkey Home ones on the wall at work. Not that I have anything against donkeys.

Here is your wet blanket again...
From an auditor's point of view such a product could not be
profitable - or let us have our investment back. We should
sell hundreds if not thousand copies for 15-20 USD
before reaching the break-even-point. PRINTING a calendar
of 12 color sheets would cost something like 15 USD each.
With postages it would be too expensive. And I have no
resources to start any shop here!

Photo labs make (small sized) private calendars using photos
provided by the client for about 15 USD at least here in Finland.
