Default Anybody collect Brown and Bigelow calendars?
Anyone have or collect the 1950s Brown and Bigelow calendars?

https://keymancollectibles.com/misce...owcalendar.htm

These were wall calendars issued in the 1950s. Condition can be the biggest challenge. Like most paper based products they weren't built to last. They would have hung on the wall in workshops, office break rooms etc.

The company also made decks of cards with the same images used in the calendars that you'll see far more frequently.

I fell in love with these when I saw one in an auction back in 2022. I've managed to pick up 8 of the 15 in the set. I have one displayed in a frame but I've found that placing them between a Perspex sheet and a backing board protects them really well. I lean them against a wall and then I can they're easy to flip through whenever I want.

So come on....show em if you've got em

Rocky, that's extremely cool. If you ever consider selling it, please think of me.

Can you share more photos?
