Description
Beautiful, vintage perpetual desk calendar in excellent condition, featuring an iconic image of The Little Mermaid in the harbor of Copenhagen (København).
This collectible is a classic example of mid-century tourist souvenirs from Denmark. The calendar is manually operated via side buttons, allowing the day of the week and the month to be set. The date is displayed in the window at the center of the scene.
Image: Colorful depiction of the Mermaid on her rock, with a sailing ship and a sightseeing boat in the background.
Material: Chrome-plated metal with a plastic front.
Features: Fully functional; adjustable date, day (English) and month (English).
Style: Mid-century modern / Retro souvenir.
