Hello January

This cute 1967 calendar page comes from a vintage Jack and Jill children's magazine.
Sweet illustration by B. Werner of the animals celebrating New Years outside in the winter garden while the people are dancing inside the house.
There is a little space on the calendar to write notes on, but it is mostly filled with small graphics and pre-written comments. Like the warning on January the 7th, "For good luck take your Christmas decorations down.... now!", or the activity on the 15th and 16th, "Nice of you to feed the birds who stayed behind". I especially like the little sketch of a route marker at the bottom end showing the way into the next year "To 1967".
And did you notice, the calendar days of 1967 match 2012 exactly!
