Talk to Broccers.

Going to be expensive if you're only doing 50 though.

I enquired at a printers about this, for a quantity of 10,000 you'd be looking at approx £2 each.

For only 50 it will be almost prohibitively expensive.

50 is not going to work with litho, period. Consider digital printing, or frankly, inkjet. 50 is really not a print run.

Spot on. Ive just priced up a job for CD case style desk top calendars with 13 inners 92 x 92 and for 50 the price is just over £3.00 each. Not bad.

Re the 10,000 run .... if you are seriously interested I'll get it quoted.

Broccers:

I would interested to see some example figures from you. We have just done a 10k run on oversize A3 calendars, and will be doing 10k of a 72 page brochure at the end of this month.

Cheers

For those that were interested :

A3 13 single sided leaves on 200 Matt Art with board back. All 4 colour 1 side and wiro bound short edge.

10,000 @ £ 0.73 each.

Price is obviously cheaper if you have just 7 leaves.
