Paramount Pattern in Clover, Studio Moderne by Michael Berman

I am in the midst of designing two bathrooms for a client and am shopping for tile. While in our local Walker Zanger Tile respresentative's showroom( Natural Stone Design Gallery), I got the update on the latest catalog. Walker Zanger is known for putting out a pretty glamorous tile catalog, and in the past, I have always been lucky to get a free copy. But I found out that this year, things are a bit different. Not only has the catalog been updated with these delicious photos. But the catalog has been beautifully hardbound in black linen. It is something one could put out on a coffee table. Amazing really: bigger, heavier, wonderful paper quality and photo quality.

Now for the down side....... I may have to actually BUY one! AND I have heard they are not inexpensive...potentially selling for $50! Walker Zanger....how could you? Don't you realize I love looking through those pages on a regular basis? I am all for saving trees and I realize everything is available for all to see on your very user friendly website here. But now that I got a brief peek at your new catalog at the showroom with it's black linen embossed cover, I am coveting it.

Perhaps we can come to some sort of an understanding..... A "deal" if you will. There must be some way we can work this out.
