Maybe asking <mailto:events@debian.org>?

Well, IMHO any of the images at <http://www.debian.org/CD/> should be
OK if they are not modified at all, otherwise it will not be anymore
Debian, but "Debian plus $EVENT_ORGANIZER".

Nevertheless, Debian has been distributing some of them starting from
the Chemnitzer Linux-Tage 2011:

  <http://lists.debian.org/msgid-search/87bp0rxlwq.fsf%40gismo.pca.it>

  Thanks to the German LinuxUser magazine [12], an official 32-bit DVD-Rom
  for Debian 6.0.0/squeeze was available for our beloved users: beside
  being labeled with the SpaceFun artwork [13], the DVD-Rom was produced
  with the environment in mind, given that it features the EcoDisc
  technology [14] to reduce carbon footprint.

  [13] <http://wiki.debian.org/DebianArt/Themes/SpaceFun#Box_and_Label_for_CDs_or_DVDs>
  [14] <http://ecodisc.org/>

I do not know how many of them are still available, but if needed (and
this is something I do not agree, IIRC as well as others from previous
private/public discussions) we can try to get more of them printed, for
sure updated to the latest point release.

Thx, bye,
