Hello friends,
This is a strange period of my life, where I resigned from my work after
twenty years, and now I'm trying to setup my own business. Maybe you'll
undertand I'm pretty puzzled and busy now.
Ok, this said, here are the news about the 1952-2002 - 50 years of Pentax
SLR cameras poster.
First, for those among you which are also AOHC members, please note that all
AOHC members will receive one poster for free, shipped together with
Spotmatic magazine No.33 next August (sorry, it will be shipped folded in
envelope). Extra copies can be ordered at $2.00 each (AOHC members) or $4.00
each (non-members), plus package and postage.
However, during this year 2002 celebrating such an important anniversary,
I'll be happy to extend to all PDML members the reduced cost per poster
($2.00 each). Then non-members will pay $4.00 each poster.
I checked the cost of carton tubes and postage for shipping it worldwide
from Italy (priority mail). For the full details following the link:

Unfortunately, as you can see the postage for such a large and heavy poster
is also heavy.
Some time ago, somebody thought it could better to ship a bunch to some
PDML'er in N. America for distribution there, rather than many separate
posters being airmailed from Italy. What do you think now?

I apologize for not replying to you earlier, since I'm still so busy in
setting up some details for the upcoming Pentax Day, to take place
next weekend in Florence.
See: http://digilander.iol.it/pentaxday/pday71e.htm
In that same page, you'll also see a preview of the Pentax 50 years
poster, just released.
AOHC will distribute it starting next June 2nd in Florence. AOHC members
will get a copy for free (paying only shipping). Extra copies for AOHC
members (and copies for PDML'ers) will cost you $2.00 each (plus postage),
while other people will pay $ 4.00 each copy.
Once I'll be back home from Pentax Day I'll arrange a proper way for
shipping a single lot of posters to USA, so that an American friend could
then relay ship the posters to anybody wanting them at US rates.
About AOHC membership, please note that I can hardly cash US checks over
here in Italy, not to speak of bank fees in case I'll find a way to get
that
cash. Why don't consider a Paypal payment? It works well!
Please see: http://digilander.iol.it/aohc/memberse.htm
Hope to get in touch with you soon.

I too would enjoy having such a poster, Dario. Rolled, not folded. You
would
find it a lot less expensive to either have your printer pack and
dropship
the needed quantity to a US distributor, preferably a PDML member with
easy
acces to the time and facility to repack and reship the poster within
North
America.
Alternatively, if your printer has any ties with a US of A or Canadian
Print
shop, the file could be sent here and printed here. If the finances
balanced
out, that is.
If you'd send me your address, Dario, I would like to favor you (or the
current treasurer) with a check for the renewal of my AOHC membership.
I've
moved twice in the past 24 months, and nothing is to be found. Except my
cameras, of course!
