Handbags Gallery 2007 Calendar by Workman Publishing Company (2006, Paperback)

For the lovers of handbags, this page-a-day calendar for 2007 features fantastic pictures and very brief descriptions of the purses photographed. The pictures are of superior quality, and the pages are a nice weight. The problem I found with this calendar is that there is nowhere to write any memos or notes. The pages are not connected to each other - it's the type of calendar where you throw away the pages everyday. It would have been nice had the pages been connected as this could have been a good reference source. I probably would not purchase this again, because of the lack of space to write notes. The pictures take up the entire page and the pages are finished with a semi-glossy type finish.

However, as mentioned above, the quality of the pictures are wonderful. Some would be suitable for framing if only the pages weren't dated, although it's easy enough to cut off the dates.

If you're interested in purses, this calendar will help you begin to identify different manufacturers from all different time periods. You'll learn one new manufacturer/designer per day, making it easy to remember.

If you want a calendar where you can write notes on the pages, this is not for you. It's also inconvenient to get to a day in the future as the pages are not connected, so you can't easily flip through. The tray doesn't seem to stay together, either, so it's better if you put this on your desk and don't move it around.

If you want to enjoy the pictures of the purses and increase your knowledge of different styles and manufactures, then give this a try. If you love purses, you'll enjoy the quality of the pictures and the clarity of the details.
