It has been my favorite ephemera and advertising colection, the very center of my collection since I assembled all of the components in 1980. Wonderful 1915 calendar exquisite detail. The chromolithograph is in a German printing technique started in 1908. The calendar features a gorgeous young Art Nouveau beauty with her face pressed against brilliant pink roses. A treasure for the most advanced collector of Art Nouveau, ephemera, or advertising''s lovely ladies of a bygone era. The frame alone is one of the best I have ever seen worthy of a museum collection.
