1946 PMSS Calendar<\/h2>\n

TAGS:<\/strong> calendars; Pine Mountain Settlement School; Harlan County, KY; Mary Rogers; illustrators; illustration; drawings;<\/p>\n

The 1946 PMSS Calendar is a small and very simple presentation of the exquisite engraving executed by Elisabeth Telling of a young William Creech.\u00a0 Telling took the image from Creech’s Civil War photograph.\u00a0 The image has long been an iconic image for Pine Mountain Settlement School and may be found on other promotional literature.<\/p>\n

The engraving dominates the calendar and below the image is a very small calendar identified by “1946”.\u00a0 The months are intended to be torn off when completed and for this reason, very few calendars of this year have survived intact.<\/p>\n

The back of the calendar has a sturdy cardboard flap that may be extended to allow the calendar to sit comfortably on desks. The inscriptions on the back describe the image and words used in the calendar<\/p>\n

WILLIAM CREECH, SR.<\/strong>
\n1845-1918
\nSoldier – Patriot – Benefactor
\nFounder of Pine Mountain Settlement School
