Title: Merchant Box and Cooperage Company of Gloucester, MA
Description: 1927 Merchant Box and Cooperage Company of Gloucester, MA. Brown and Bigelow calendar for October, 1927 with illustration by Milo Winter. $16.99 from The Jumping Frog through Ebay, Jan., '25.

The formatting and approach of this blotter is remarkably similar -- and by the same artist -- as our various calendars designed by Winter and printed by Brown and Bigelow. The design has a boat operator emptying water out of his boat. After the highlighted maxim, the calendar asks "Are your sales of bottled goods sinking?" I have trouble identifying a known image or story.
Date: 1927
