A Christmas Idea For Beaver Fans

It's that time of year when everyone is looking for Christmas gift ideas, and also about time to find that particularly interesting practical item, a calendar for next year. Thanks to our friends as Asgard Press, you can take care of both of those projects, plus get a start on decorating your game day watching area, with a 2013 Calendar that features high-quality reproductions of a dozen vintage program covers.

They are designed for easy removal and framing once you are done using it as a calendar.

The program covers are particularly great nostalgia items (even if that 1908 game depicted above went in favor of those guys in green and gold (Oregon won 8-0, starting a 3 game skid that included a 32-0 loss at Washington the next week, and led to a 4-3-1 season record for the Oregon Agricultural College team).

Each one also gives you a glimpse into the style of the times through the years.

(There's one on the wall in the offices of Buildingthedam.com!)

Asgard (http://asgardpress.com/products/oregon-state) also has calendars for the last 4 years, and you can see every page in each calendar, in case there's one that's special to you (maybe grand dad played in one of those games?), and they have a poster from the 1941 classic game against Washington, which Oregon St. won 9-6. That was the first win in what would be Oregon St.'s first Rose Bowl run.

Asgard also has nearly 80 other schools in their collection, including every member of the Pac-12.

Oregon St. fans interested in any of these classic pieces of history can get a 10% discount on all purchases from now through Feb. 1, 2013 by using promo code buildingthedam12 when you make your purchase on-line. That gets the "Benny" stamp of approval!
