It seems as if wall calendars are the last vestige of paper stationery items still in widespread use.
Last year we had a cockapoo wall calendar in honor of our beloved dog Mitzy.
This year we have the retro This is Paris wall calendar and a vintage postcard calendar published by the Art Deco Society of Washington.
I love graphics from the art deco and mid-century modern eras, especially the travel posters from the 1920s, 1930s, 1940s and 1950s.
There are a number of 2014 travel calendars that caught my eye this year.
They mostly feature vintage travel posters of various travel destinations on my bucket list.
There’s nothing like a different poster every month to provide some inspiration for travel!
A few of these calendars feature different modes of streamlined transportation: rail, cruise ships, and subways.
The nice thing about some of these calendars is that the artwork is suitable for framing.
I don’t know where 2014 will take me, but here are some places I might want to go.
It can’t hurt to dream, right?

Next year I am going to be on the lookout for the WPA poster calendar promoting travel to the National Parks — it’s a limited edition and already out of print!

I love the Kathleen Francour collage of “Destinations.” Makes me what to update my passport.
Definitely. I hear the golf courses in Scotland are great!
