I make sure to have this calendar every year. Ben Mendlowitz's style is distinctive. He appreciates fine boats from the perspective of the sailor as well as the photographer's viewpoint. And when I say "fine" boats, I mean those that are fitted to their purpose--not the largest or the most expensive. An example is his portrait of the sardine carrier Jacob Pike in this year's calendar, rust streaks and all. Or his photo of man and dog happily rowing a simple Maine peapod. (Well, the man is doing all the rowing.) This is a publication to cherish--I save each year's edition for future reference.
Every year, for the last . . . well for a very long time, I've purchased the Mendlowitz Wooden Boat Calendar. Each month has a phenomenal Mendlowitz photograph, which would look wonderful framed all by themselves. I reveal each month's photograph, read the captioning and spend the month looking up from my desk to the beauty of the fine wooden boats on pretty water. What a relief from the task at hand to be momentarily distracted when you check the date and get to take a bit of a daydream sail, especially on those foul days that would drive me into the street to begin "methodically knocking people's hats off". A little daily solace without the work of varnishing the rub rails.
This is nice calendar of wooden boats. The photos are very professional and likely to make many people feel they'd rather be sailing.PROS:- Quality calendar- Professional photosCONS:- none
My husband has been receiving this calendar for so many years by someone else and this year it had been forgotten - so I ordered it. If you love boats and fine woodworking you will enjoy this calendar.
It is great to see someone keeping the heritage of wooden boats by keeping them in the public eye. The monthly pages have enough room to make notes. Looking foreward to next years.
Beautiful photos of wooden boats. Shop around and you might find a better price for the same calender. I did get free shipping so, in retrospect it was a wash on the total price. I would conclude by saying, rich people buy boats, really rich people buy wooden boats.
I get it every year for my husband, he loves the selection of boats. The photography and materials made to make this calendar have been consistently good through the years.
Buy one every year to grace our office wall. just love looking up at it on a cold day in our winter mountain home to remine me that sailing season will shortly return.
