Newspaper Club - (Printers)

I have researched into the newspaper club website / company  

( who will be printing our newspaper ) 

I have found out the following information about the newspaper club: 

What newspaper club actually is and what they do

So, what is newspaper club and what do they do? 

Newspaper club was set up and made by a  organization know as: R.I.G - Really Interesting Group. Rig  is a multi disciplinary organization who work in post- digital designs. 

Projects which RIG have been involved with other than newspaper club are as follows: 

Apple, Umbro, BBC, Dopplr, Six to Start and Penguin

The newspaper club is funded by Channel Four (4IP) 

As it states on the website they are NOT about news or any particular form of content. they mainly concentrate on printing newspapers or as they say (Ink & newsprint), they will basically print anything and everything which is sent to them, but with obvious limitations! 

Here are some direct quotes from the website: 

"We think the web is wonderful and printed newspapers are a tremendous, highly-evolved way of reading stuff." 

"Whatever you think would be good to print that way; we think you're probably right."

Shown below are some screen grabs from the newspaper club website which clearly show the guidelines they set for when producing a newspaper for them: 

Here is a screen shot showing the pricing guide shown on the newspaper club website: 

For our newspaper we are producing a set of 500 full colour copies so that will of course cost us £500 

Here is an example of the kind of material (newspapers) which newspaper club have printed in the past 

BBC - Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy (Penguin) 

Newspaper club printed the hitchhikers newspaper for the BBC as a sampler to show people a taster of the new installment of hitchhikers guide to the galaxy  ( the 6th installment) 

Here are some photos showing the newspaper itself :
