Description:

1894 "Ladies Perfumed Calendar, compliments of E.W. Hoyt & Co., Lowell, Mass. Proprietors of Hoyt's German Cologne, Rubifoam for the Teeth." The recto bears a color image of a small girl in a pink dress holding a basket of flowers as two doves roost on her. Calendars for January through December 1894 are printed on the verso as well as an advertisement for Hoyt's German Cologne which cautions against "the numerous trashy Colognes that usurp its name and style of bottle." Prices are listed at 25 cents for a trial size, 50 cents for medium size, and one dollar for a large bottle. "For sale by J.C. Harper, - - Milan, Mich., Dealer In Drugs, Patent Medicines, Chemicals, Fancy and Toilet Articles, Brushes, Perfumery, etc." is printed at the bottom of one copy. "For sale by Lynch & Schwimm, Wellington, Kan., Dealers in Drugs, Patent Medicines, Chemicals, Fancy and Toilet Articles, Brushes, Perfumery, etc." is printed at the bottom of the other.
