For all of you folks without printing knowledge............ All four color printing processes are very expensive. 1,000 six page calendars with two months per page in an 8x14" size will cost about $3,000.00 to produce. The printer prefers the color negative to work from so it can have proper cropping and color registration. You can look around to calendar printers (yes there are specialty printers for just calendars) possibly they a VW calendar already containing VWs at about $3.50 each on 100 lot orders.
