<p>[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 409461, member: 51"]Several companies made reproductions of these older decorative calendars, 1970s-80s, especially. I don't think to deceive, just got started as a trend of sorts, older graphics had a popular resurgence, etc. As far as I know, the reproductions kept the original date. Here are several on Ebay, scroll down a bit:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2323847.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.A0.H0.Xreproduction+calendar.TRS2&_nkw=reproduction+calendar&_sacat=0" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2323847.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.A0.H0.Xreproduction+calendar.TRS2&_nkw=reproduction+calendar&_sacat=0" rel="nofollow">https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2323847.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.A0.H0.Xreproduction+calendar.TRS2&_nkw=reproduction+calendar&_sacat=0</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I agree, as mentioned, one would expect some wording somewhere indicating it was a reproduction. Most, but not all on Ebay, seem to have that. </p><p><br /></p><p>That other items were in the box from the early 1900s is a good sign. It's a great image, no matter what. Maybe putting back in the box for the next generation is a strategy.
