Well... I just found the pictures online on Michael Miller's website last night, and they were interesting so I posted them.
I just got off the phone with customer service at Michael Miller, and apparently these pictures were intended to be a "secret preview" for their overseas manufacturing clients.
??
So they may, or may not, ever go to print. I did my VERY BEST to convince the customer sales rep that there would be a lot of interest in the trailer ones in particular. So now he's got to take it up to the management, to see if he can find out more about these designs.
But... apparently the "secret preview" is not so secret after all, as the cat is out of the bag so to speak (and no, it was not because of my post!)... they are getting a lot of calls on these potential future groups. I think it's a great way for them to figure out whether a design has enough interest to be printed. They should do more of this! (But then, maybe other manufacturers would copy their designs. It's a dog-eat-dog world, I guess...)
I will post whatever I am able to find out about this group!
