Grant Silk Woven Pictures - gt235: Grant 1935 Calendar

by Geoffrey Godden:

CALENDARS

Various woven calendars were made in different years - many mounted on postcards from the early 1900s onwards, others with Christmas or New Year greetings printed on the reverse side.

Several silks were incorporated in the covers or mounts of calendars (the calendar part being printed on paper in the normal manner) and these cannot be classed as woven calendars. Nevertheless, the finest post-war Grant silk pictures have been especially woven to enhance these standard calendars.

No title: EASTERN SCENE
Figures in ruined (temple?) doorway with large pillars. Silk incorporated in a Grant Company calendar.

Other comments:
On the calendar above, the silk is matted into the card frame, with a flap to be lifted to reveal the 1935 calendar.
