content: Synagogue wall calendar for the year 5654 (1893/4), from Calcutta, India. Includes, in addition to notations for Jewish observance, a schedule for Torah readings, and calendar determinations, a chronology of major events in Jewish history in the lower margin.  The calendar is designed in pink, purple, green and red ink. Blue and yellow are employed for decorative details. The upper margins contain two medallions filled with Stars of David in both corners and a large panel containing the year inHebrew letters on a pink background. The lower portion contains six vertical columns with the names of the months and their Muslim and Hindu equivalents, and synagogue observances.  Above each column are the identifying titles and a five-stemmed plant (pomegranate?) set within semi-circles.
