Rundu.com Releases 2008 Calendar Line
Featuring Edgy and ‘Au Naturel’ Images of Black Men

Atlanta, GA Fall/Winter 2007: Atlanta-based
publishing company, Rundu Enterprises, Inc.,
recently released two, 2008 calendars; the company’s
traditional wall calendar, MEN…RUNDU STYLE 2008, and
a relatively new addition, Bare Essentials 2008.
The
company’s flagship MEN…RUNDU STYLE calendar line is
known for its non-nude, yet daring images of black
men. However, Bare Essentials is the company’s
first all-nude calendar of black men. “We did a
survey a while back asking our customer base about
their thoughts on a nude calendar. They were all
for it and we made a point to make Bare Essentials
edgy, yet classy,” said Rundu, the
African-American, female photographer behind the
company’s images. “In fact, the tagline for Bare
Essentials is Leaving Nothing to the Imagination
but Class”, she continued.
Both calendars were shot primarily on location in
Jamaica and in August the company continued it's "Am
I Dreaming?" free, Internet video series whereby a
sleeping beauty is dreaming that she’s hanging out
with the Rundu calendar men. "Am I Dreaming?"
has been a big hit around the Internet and is
helping to raise awareness for the Rundu Men
calendars.
With its array of provocative but classy books and
calendars, Rundu Enterprises, Inc. carries a mission
to break down stereotypes and show that black men
can be depicted in a sensual light.
Rundu also photographed a coffee table book entitled
Wetdreams, and the company’s products have sold over
500,000 units combined. Furthermore, along with its
free galleries of tasteful images, the
www.Rundu.com website encourages interaction by
posting original, erotic short-stories written by
site visitors in a section titled Bedtime Stories
which has fast become one of the more popular
destinations of the site.
Rundu Enterprises, Inc. is an eight year-old, female-owned
company which strives for a high degree of
excellence in its sexy, classy presentation of black
men and women.
