Audio of Being Calendar

[Scott Rodgerson]

Hey folks, I'm looking for a pretty obscure piece of MGB memorabilia-- or at least a scan of it. Back in the fall of 2001 there was an issue of Chart that included a tear-out Audio of Being calendar, probably branded with the TrustUs logo. It most prominently featured the Lionel Drew illustrations from the record, but there were a few extra pieces that were only included on the calendar, as well as a graphic predicting future events.

The reason for all this is I'm making a t-shirt for the AOB tour that never happened as a gift for a friend. I've got really high-res scans of all the album material (I bought a poster way back), but can't find anything from that calendar. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

i could do some scans of this, if it is what you are looking for?

it's a bit beat up..

I'm always uncomfortable watching those pictures... you can see that they aren't happy to be there.

I had no idea this existed, very cool! I love the Audio of Being artwork and really like how that was incorporated here (great scans Chad too).

some of the graphics from the calendar (that aren't included with the original CD artwork), are included with the new AoB vinyl release on the paper sleeves. If you want large, high res pictures of these (that are brand new and in good quality). Let me know. I can  take a photo of them with my camera and upload them. Notably these pictures:

Wow, I had never seen this before! Thanks for sharing it.

Thanks so, so much, Chad. The evolutionary illustration was the only thing I couldn't find (plus all that copy). I really appreciate it.

Edit: Apparently Chad's got scans of the vinyl elements up on his site, so we're good! Again, thank you for the offer. It means a lot.

Oh, and in case anybody wanted some giant, poster-sized scans of the original art...

(Sorry, attachment size limits.)

I've got more, but I think I've hit my upload limit.
