This is a repeat message from before. So far, we are
only half-way there. More orders are needed. Please
talk it up with you friends. Forward this email.
Discuss it on the Drake nets. It MAY be possible to
print a smaller quantity but the price will increase
some.
Here it is folks. I have been able to put together
a"Commemorative Edition" of the official Drake logbook
of years past. RLDrake, LLC has approved this
printing.
This is NOT an exact duplicate of any one version but
a combination of all. The formatremains the same and
the front cover that was chosen was that of theDrake
C-Line.
The inside front cover is the same as they were all
originally printed with fill-in lines for your station
info.
The first few pages and last few pages contain a
collection of all the previous logbook pages. The
originals had information about Drake andtheir plant
as well as advertisement on the various model lin!
es.Instead of one page, like the original, I copied
all the versions sothis edition will have all
varieties under one cover.
The cover of the logbook is a nice 60# weight cover
stock with atextured, satin finish similar to the
original. I'm using an off-whitecolor stock to keep
the vintage look.
The inside pages (10pages here) are black print on a
good 70# weight offset text paper.Here too I used a
natural color to preserve the vintage nature.
I am asking for advance orders (no payments yet) to
measure the seriousinterest in printing these
logbooks. The cost to you will be $3.75 eachplus
shipping. I will use UPS shipping through my office so
it will beat a discounted shipping rate. This is being
sold at my cost. PayPalwill be available but will have
a processing charge. I must have atotal print run of
500 issues to make this offer.
Email your requests to wc4r at inbox.com, NOT to this
group or my emailattached to this notice. I must hear
from you by MARCH 29 (that's in10! days) to put you on
the order list. PAYMENT DEADLINE is April 30,2007.
I will have some that I will bring to the Dayton
Hamvention (DrakeForum) in May. You can also pick
yours up there to save on shipping.
Sorry if this was long but I wanted to be sure you all
knew how thisturned out. Email any questions to my
inbox address. Please commit toyour orders that you
request as I will have to bear the up front costof
nearly $2000 to pull this off.
