Tattooed Librarians Calendar

The new calendar features ten women and two men who love books, tattoos, and aren't afraid to show you their tatted up skin.
The twelve librarians and library workers featured in this calendar represent just a few of the many working professionals who are proud of their career, their ink, and the stories that they tell.
Proceeds from the sale will benefit the library association.

Hot Roman Priests Calendar
4
From Venice-based photographer Piero Pazzi comes this project that features pictures of actual Roman Catholic priests. Most of the images were reportedly captured during Holy Week.
He met most of featured priests on the streets of Rome and asked to take their photos. Though the priests did not provide the photographer with their names, most were happy to be photographed after they were told the reason for the calendar. According to the photographer, the portraits are purely intended to promote the Eternal City and inform visitors about the Vatican.

Standard Hotels Calendar (with Guest's Complaints)
6
Their 2014 calendar is a visual interpretation of the most memorable guest letters, requests, and comments that the hotel received in the past year. Whether they're calling the staff "the nicest pooch-lovers in the whole world," demanding compensation because the hot tub melted the prescription off their glasses, or asking, “I lost my kush. Where's my kush?" the Standard Hotel guests entertain with every turn of the page.
From all of the bizarre things that they had received throughout the year, they narrowed it down to 12 that were reenacted by the hotels' staff. The calendar was photographed by French multimedia artist Thomas Mailaender.

Cow Yoga Calendar

Combining the two in a calendar is sort of the best of both worlds, now isn't it? Funny digitally enhanced photos of cows in Yoga poses are sure to make you laugh and relax a little.

Red Telephone Box Calendar

This "nerdy" calendar showing a collection of red phone boxes has failed to sell a single copy.
Also, the publishers of the 2014 Fast Disappearing Red Telephone Boxes of Wales calendar have admitted that they might have misjudged their target market. The glossy book has been on sale since September but has proven to be a failure from day one.
Creator Kevin Beresford, who was behind last year's hit calendarRoundabouts of Great Britain, wanted to capture a unique slice of Britain. However, he misjudged it this time.

NYC Cab Drivers Calendar

This wacky NYC Taxi Drivers 2014 Calendar was created for University Settlement, an organization that helps immigrant families fund higher education, housing, and literacy programs, and with such a good cause behind them there's no need for all the beefcake and fluffy puppy shots. In fact, now that these NYC cabbies have shown the world their softer side both the fares and the charitable donations are sure to come rolling in.
