[Rebirthia]

some making off here:
page 8 vol_03 in http://aempwing.ayudynasty.com/tamag.html

btw, i think it would be a good idea to create a thread for ayu's calendars...

[kilia22]

It's a good idea , all scans should be in HQ =)

[Rebirthia]

well, that's the problem. the first calendars are not scanned at all, we have only pics of them, in some cases with more or less good quality like in 00 & 01

[pommy48]

exactly!!!
i love that pic of ayu...so..polka dottie and punk!

That was the poster that came with the calendar back in the day ^^ I remember that. I forget if it was a first-press thing or if it was only for TA members though o_O

i saw her 01 calender at ebay, i tried to bid, but the price gets a little too ex for me. it was actually the pictures of her concert.

Wow, that's not her 2001 calendar at all! That seller is flat-out lying saying that it's the official japanese one.

Wow.

Wow.

exactly!

and besides, there'snot a single pic where she looks at the camera...


about the poster... yeah, it may be, since we have had a similar thing with 2009 calendar.... team ayu started back in 2001 or earlier?

[Delirium-Zer0]

The fanclub started in late 1999 with the BBS and downloads and stuff... the magazine started in early 2001. But yeah, TeamAyu was certainly doing members-only giveaways by the time the 2002 calendar came out.

Wow.

[pommy48]

That version may be a tour good, but I'm not sure about it. :/

[Delirium-Zer0]

It's not, the "monochrome" fansite has complete lists with small pictures of everything sold at ayu's tours, and that calendar is not included.

As a general rule, if you see any photobooks or calendars made up of concert photos, it's not an officially licensed product. (The Dome Tour 2001 book is the only exception so far.)

pommy: yes, that's the cover of her '01 calendar. ^^

[pommy48]

ah ok~ now i can rest in peace knowing that is the official 2001 calendar XD

[LacusClyne]

but no one have the exact pictures in the 2001 calender?

[Delirium-Zer0]

I have them, but... hm. Like, I have photos of the entire pages, but scans of only part of the photo.

But I'll have a thread up in a few minutes with reference thumbnails of all ayu's calendars, so people know what photos come from where & what exactly the official calendars look like.
