Copper alloy Calendar. A milled disc with a central square in which the names of months appear along the top, with five rows of numbers below corresponding to the days in each month. On each side of the square a further long legend appears. These legends include Royal birthdays and anniversaries, festivals and moveable feasts, lunar phases, and University terms. The most helpful legend today is perhaps that which identifies and dates the object: ..1798../A CALENDAR/THE SUNDAY FIGURES, which may suggest a particular ecclesiastical and specifically Anglican interest on the part of the ow…

A complete copper alloy calendar disc dating to the Post Medieval to Modern period (c. AD 1800-1900). The object is a pressed disc depicting months, dates and days of the week.

White metal calendar. A die-stamped disc issued as a promotional trinket advertising Matchless Metal Polish. One side bears the image of a draped female [probably Minerva] polishing her Corinthian helmet; a small circular panel identifying the issuer as a Liverpool company; the motto: BRIGHTENS / THE WORLD, and, in larger letters, the circumferential legend: MATCHLESS METAL POLISH. The other side bears a central roundel with the date 1903 within, the rest being occupied by a radial arrangement of notation which permitted the user to establish on which day of the week any date in that …

A post medieval to modern copper alloy calendar disc, possibly of 19th century date. A tamped or pressed metal disc bearing months, dates and days of the week. This is the inner part of a revolving calendar, so devised as to permit weekdays and calendar dates to be correlated for the period of its validity by viewing through a slot or slots in an outer casing. The obverse shows the days of the month arranged in squares with 7 squares in each row. Above this are the months, arranged in two rows of six squares. There is additional writing but this is badly affected by corrosion an…

Copper alloy possible calendar. Cast plate whose form appears to be defined by a six-pointed star (that form known as the Star of Solomon or of David) with a curving lobe between each pair of its points. This configuration might also be used to depict a flower with rounded petals. An integrally cast socket of diameter 6.5mm and height 7.4mm projects from the back of the plate, and now has a flat-ended pin of diameter 5.7mm jammed into it. This feature may indicate an original requirement for the object to rotate when it was in use, perhaps as a mechanism with some relationship to a cl…

White metal disc. Stamped or pressed metal disc bearing months, dates and days of the week. This is the inner part of a revolving calendar, so devised as to permit weekdays and calendar dates to be correlated for the period of its validity by viewing through a slot or slots in an outer casing. The year 1908, as appears at the centre of the disc, is presumably the period for which this manual calculator would serve. It was perhaps a promotional novelty, and might be deemed necessary in outlying areas before the advent of broadcast media. Suggested date: Modern, 1908 Diameter: 38.1mm…

Copper alloy possible pocket calendar fragment. Lightly curved strip with a central longitudinal stepped groove on one side, and with paired longitudinally and lightly incised lines on the other. The curvature might suggest this to be from the edge of a dial or instrument. Two pairs of vertically incised lines on the grooved side frame the letter W and another symbol above the groove; the lines are 6.8mm, or one quarter of an inch, apart. The other side bears six roughly incised and slightly slanting lines which cross the more lightly incised longitudinal lines. These are again mainly…

Half of a silver disc from a pocket perpetual calendar dating to the later 18th or early 19th century. The fragment is flat and semi-circular with a raised outer rim. There are the remains of a circular perforation on the broken edge of the calendar. Between this and the outer rim are two lightly engraved concentric circles. The outer rim is engraved with the words, in serifed lower-case (very like a Courier font), Sunday Monday Tuesday Wed.... There appears to be a fragment of circular hole through the broken edge next to the start of the word 'Sunday', and the word Wednesday is trun…
