Sting Grey Havens and Valinor

Now we know that the Grey Havens is the port on the west coast of Middle-Earth and Valinor is in Aman across the sea.

But on much of the FOTR merchandise the Grey Havens = Valinor. HAs anyone else noticed this, for instance it was on this calender pad for 2002 as one of the questions.

I would appreciate comments.

Hm, I haven't noticed it myself...most likely it is an error on the part of New Line or whoever made the calendar...good question though.

I noticed that, too (one of the trivia questions, right?). But then again, I never did like the Tolkien merchandise (except the cool pewter figures with the crystals....).

I get a load of merchandise for christmas and dont actually buy it, only posters.

I'm glad someone else noticed. Apart from that, the calender was pretty good, and I think all the other questions were right.

On the subject of the calander, does anyone know if you can get one for the Two Towers?
