Studio on fire calendar 2010
So I've had almost a whole year of enjoyment looking at my Studio on Fire calendar for 2010. Each month's wonderful card with it's illustration by them and/or their friends. I'm really looking forward to seeing what the 2011 calendar/piece will look like.
Check out their blog for loads more of their lovely work and some great info on contemporary letterpress techniques: http://www.beastpieces.com/

I quite like this approach for calendars. Having a hand printed single image that remains all year with the months as simple tear off sheets. This one is by Hammerpress ( http://hammerpress.net ).
J Otto Seibold Advent Calendar
My wife and I have always been fans of J Otto Seibold. We have many of the books he illustrated with Vivian Walsh and a great poster for Penguin Dreams. So we couldn't resist this Olive the Other Reindeer Popup advent calendar.
