Got to go out for about an hour and found this cool little advertising calendar. I think it would have gone a key chain or something like that. It measures 3/4 x 3/4 without the top ring thing. What is really cool is that the calendar is still in the piece. What is showing is August 1919. Behind that page there are more months. The calendar part is wrapped in plastic or some material like that and is designed so that the months can be changed.

The back says:

SAMUEL M GREEN CO
-incorporated-
SPRINGFIELD, MASS
ENGINEERS
ARCHITECTS
BUILDERS
APPRAISERS

Has anybody ever seen one of these?

Thanks for reading and keep diggin

Al its always cool to find something with a date on it to give you an era to put it in but that could narrow it down to the month and year when that particular item was lost . very interesting find sir. thumbsup01
