content: In the 1940, the Sales Department at Harris-Seybold Company printed a very high quality calendar on Harris presses that was given to customers and Harris employees. At this time in the industry, this was a new idea. The normal calendars that companies supplied were not of high quality. Harris hired the services of a well-known illustrator/artist to create an original piece of artwork. A printing company using Harris presses would then duplicate this artwork using the sheetfed offset lithographic process. The first calendar was for the year 1940-1941 and the last calendar was 1964-1965.
