Vintage Margate Souvenir Perpetual Desk Calendar – Butterfly & Floral Design

Vintage Margate Souvenir Perpetual Desk Calendar – Butterfly & Floral Design – c.1950s/60s

Art deco style possibly bakelite or early form of plastic

Days dates and months all present and clear

13 cm wide

13 cm tall

A charming vintage souvenir desk calendar from Margate, with a wonderfully nostalgic seaside feel. Set within a pale mint-green octagonal frame, the calendar face is decorated with delicate trailing flowers, butterflies, and a central scroll reading “Margate”. ( Please note Margate is a sticker and could be removed)

The design has a lovely mid-century character, with soft pastel colours and a slightly faded, timeworn patina that adds to its appeal. The calendar displays the day, month and date, suggesting it was made as a reusable perpetual-style desk calendar or mantelpiece souvenir.

A sweet piece of British seaside memorabilia, ideal for collectors of Margate, Kent, vintage travel souvenirs, retro desk accessories, or decorative mid-century pieces.

Condition:

In vintage condition with visible age-related wear, including discolouration and staining to the calendar face, plus light marks to the frame. This is part of its original charm and history. Please see photographs for detail.
