The Calendrier Cover Imperfect / A Year of Color and Wit / Old Book / Antique Book / Illustrated Book / Calendar

Playful designs are sprinkled throughout the book, with full-page, full-color illustrations gracing each month, alongside charming Victorian-style engraved illustrations. This book is not just a visual delight but also a treasure trove of knowledge, encompassing 366 days of wisdom and fascinating tidbits. From tips on preventing laundry from freezing on winter days to the patent year of the safety pin (1849), and the curious fact that only 48 copies of "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" were sold on its first day of publication in 1865, each page offers surprise and inspiration. It also includes many practical little suggestions, such as using hair clippings to fertilize bean sprouts or employing garlic to deter moles and snails.
