Finnish retro kitchen pot 1972 calendar kitchen cloth

Kitchen cloth issued in 1972 Printed with Nordic daily vegetables generously placed in a large pot The design of the year number is very distinctive Finnish and Swedish Sweden once ruled Finland The official languages of Finland are still Finnish + Swedish. So there is such a bilingual kitchen cloth Some signs of use (see photos) But overall well preserved There is also a hanging loop sewn by the previous user. 48.5x61.5cm --------------- By chance, I was in my mother's kitchen in Finland and opened a whole drawer of kitchen cloths. Some of the old cloth towels with calendars printed on them look quite historical. Calendar kitchen cloths are small items that many Nordic friends will buy when their children are born. On the one hand, they can be hung up and used in the current year, and on the other hand, they can be kept and used after the end of the year. Every time I pick up the kitchen towel, I start to recall my children. It seems that this trend came from the United States, and Nordic countries also followed suit and printed calendars on high-quality kitchen cloths. No wonder, such multi-purpose gadgets are most in line with Nordic pragmatism.
