Good morning. I hope you are well. It has been quite a busy week here at the Trunk HQ, and things are starting to get a bit festive. A good example is today's #50pFriday album which is a killer slice of Hawaiian Christmas, from that Lord of exotica, Arthur Lyman. All yours for 50p here. There are more Christmas 50p albums a comin'.

Also, I have been busy putting together the daft Trunk Christmas CD, this year called The Egg Nog Mix. It is now available. It is part of the near legendary "Jonny Christmas Sack" in Ye Olde Trunk Shoppe. This year I have gone through all warehouse stock, found things that have dropped out of the shop and off the system (like vinyl I thought was sold out etc) and put them up for sale for bargain prices. CDs start at 99p. There are copies of Sammy Lee on wax and Classroom Projects too - LPs that were misfiled and have now been found and are now for sale for a steal. Spend £20 or more and you get the Egg Nog CD for free, otherwise it is £5.99.

Jonny's Christmas Sack can be found here, there are three pages of things.

Also, Yesterday I took delivery of 50 prints. I mentioned them a few weeks ago. They are a series of five prints from Oliver Postgate's Pogle archive, taken directly from his original transparencies. These are officially licensed from the Postgate family, and are fine art Giclee prints on Hahnemuhle Photorag 308gsm paper. They look amazing but I have to say look less amazing in the greedbag shop (two are cropped on the photos!) and that's something I am working on. There are five beautiful prints, all in editions of ten, hand numbered and stamped. They can be seen here.

There are more goodies on the way - tee shirts, sweatshirts and a new Trunk album all next week. So I'll be annoying you when they all arrive.

I've now have to sit here for about four hours and scan various amazing and not so amazing drawings that have been sent into Trunk for the last couple of releases. The galleries should be up next week which will be followed by the inevitable compliants from people whose works of art failed to make the cut. So my apologies in advance. 

Have a lovely weekend and thanks for listening

Jonny
