Condition: Very good vintage condition — print has small bottom tear; cardboard worn at corners and top left. Please review photos closely before purchasing, as all sales are final.
Still a handsome and historically significant piece, suitable for framing. A wonderful find for calendar ephemera collectors, American illustration enthusiasts, or anyone who loves the pastoral landscape tradition of early 20th-century Americana.
Frank F. English (1854–1922) spent his career documenting the agrarian America that was rapidly giving way to the industrial age. Trained at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, he became celebrated for countryside watercolors widely reproduced for calendars, advertisements, and store promotions — his images preserving what he called America's cultural transition from farm to factory. This is an original 1927 salesman sample featuring his lithograph "End of Day" (#6213), with the January 1927 calendar sample tucked under a flip-tab below. A real satin bow tops the piece; a hanging string is on the back.
