Popular in the United States from 1906 through the 1920’s, calendar plates were produced as souvenirs and commonly used as complimentary gifts and ceramic advertisements. Most American examples were produced in East Liverpool, Ohio, the center of the pottery industry and home of the McNicol Pottery Company. Unusual to find an early-20th century Jewish-American example.
