There'll Always Be An England

I discovered this beautiful calendar from 1942.  It has beautiful photographs of England along with snippets of poetry.  Enjoy!













The calendar was manufactured by Raphael Tuck & Sons Co., Inc.  They produced not only calendars, but greeting cards and post cards for many years.  Here is a good place to learn more about them.
