Wow! that's neat.
So, just how far ahead do those get printed? I always did wonder.

They couldn't have been printed too far in advance. The one thing I do

get them delivered. So basically, my department got them from the offset
department & had to have them delivered that same evening.

Thank goodness for the Internet.  ;-)  (now every day is JIT day)
