1911 CPC Calendar
CPC Calendar
(Dimensions: 10 inches x 15 inches)
~1911
This very tattered specimen of a 1911 CPC calendar was found in the Avon Archives at the Hagley Museum and Library; thus far, this is the only example of the 1911 calendar known to exist. Interestingly, a search of all the 1910 and 1911 CPC Bulletins and Outlooks yielded no details as to how these calendars where distributed: free to the customer? with a purchase of some minimum amount of goods retail? This same statement can basically be said of the 1912 and 1914 calendars below: in that no information concerning their distribution methodology has thus far been found.
