Tax included
Out of stock
A scarcely seen, wooden perpetual wall or mantel calendar. This is piece is quite unusual as it is larger than the standard size that we have found in the past.
Notable for their simple Modernist design and distinctive Gill Sans typeface. These calender's were manufactured in various sizes throughout the 1940s and 1950s and often found in Post Offices, Factories and Court Houses.
The case is constructed from a combination of solid wood sides with veneer faced front and ply back. The day, date and month rolls are all printed on linen. These are protected by glazed windows. The knobs to the side are bronzed and knurled.
This piece would make a great talking piece within the home or would work equally well as a stylists prop or as part of a retail display or production set design.
Condition:
In very good, fully working, vintage condition. Original glazed front and hanging plate. The linen is in very good clean condition and the rollers turn well. The case has minimal wear as to be expected for its age.
Dimensions:
Width: 27cm
Height: 31cm
A very desirable decorative piece, would bring a touch of classic mid century style to any interior space.

Our restoration process
Preparation
We carefully assess every piece, identifying any damage, repairs or replacement parts it may need.

We look beyond the surface to uncover hidden defects, ensuring each piece is restored to work as it was originally intended.

It’s a delicate process that takes patience, skill and attention to detail — one we’ve taken the time to perfect. Each piece is carefully and sensitively restored, preserving its original character and charm while giving it a new lease of life.
Finishing
Finally, we add the finishing touches — whether that’s painting, oiling or sealing, fitting new handles, hinges or catches, or simply giving the piece a final clean and polish. We make sure every piece is ready for modern living, giving it a new lease of life and a renewed sense of purpose, ready to be loved for generations to come.
