The 50th anniversary of John Deere's lawn and garden line is approaching. I have done calendars before in the past, ( see 2012 Calendar ), so I want to do a 50th anniversary one for 2013. I will need high resolution pictures of any John Deere lawn and garden tractor. I would prefer stock. Attachments welcome, i.e. front blade, 3 points, loaders, decks, plows, etc., but do not want custom paint jobs, no pullers, etc. I would like as original as possible, but some exceptions are accepted, i.e. tires, rims, wheel weights, weight brackets, etc. Email them to me at [email protected]. It would be neat to have a '63 and a 2013 tractor in the calendar - I wish I had a picture of the two together.

Also if anyone has experience with making calendars and would like to volunteer their time and expertise, let me know. I use excel and I know there are better alternatives, but I like "free" software. Goal is to make this a free downloadable calendar in a pdf format. Thanks.

Oh, I forgot to add, action shots are welcome, i.e. snow blowing or pushing snow, plowing a field, etc.

I'm getting a late start on this, so time is of an essence.

Looks like this project isn't going to get off the ground. I just have few who submitted pictures far. So, please send me pictures of your JD lawn and garden tractors. Thanks.

Preliminary 2013 Calendar

I didn't get a whole lot of pictures, so it's a little weak. But here is a draft, preliminary copy.

I see my picture of Adam on his X728 made it for August. Cool.

Darrin,
Yeah, I had that photo left over from the 2012 calendar and thought it would be great to show it this year, especially highlighting the differences from a '63 110 to a newer X700 series tractor.

Guys,
This is just a preliminary version, I'm still open for suggestions and/or submittals for high resolution pictures.
