Replicated 1944 calendar
#1

I found this hanging in our store, when we purchased it back in 2002. I decided to take a good look at it, when we began removing items, replacing things on the walls, or simply moving items of interest to new spots within our market, this month.

 

I copied each month for you to see, but I had to do them piecemeal (scanned each month in two images), in order to display entire page, since I don't own a LEGAL size scanner (11 X 14).

 

Hope you enjoy this. They did a very nice job.

 

There is info on the back of each page, but I will present that later. It will be a bit more difficult to do so, since many of the pages can't simply be cut in two...

 

Here's to 1944!

From the pictures, it looks as though it is in very good shape.

I noticed it was from a glass shop in Ortonville. Ortonville was only about 10 miles away from Oxford and we had many 4th of July reunions and campouts at Bloomer State Park. Ortonville is a nice little town and I remember them having their 125th celebration back in thev 60's. The also had a great flea market every weekend.

Oops, I think you misunderstood; it's a replica calendar. They did a nice job. So happens that 2000 and 1944, have the same exact dates.

 

When you go back and look, notice the date 2000 on the calendar (top right next to L&L) and also the note on each month (written in the first row of the calendar dates), which states

 

NOTE: 1944 dates are the same as 2000
