Verellan Orchards Pocket Calendars

CLIENT: Personal Project

During one of my many scroll sessions on eBay, I came across these old credit card sized pocket calendars that companies would often print as practical promotional materials. I was immediately inspired to make my own for a locally loved business called Verellan Orchards. During my next pie-pickup, I snapped some photos of the virtually unchanged storefront and got to work. Verellan Orchards opened its doors in 1920, so I decided to design these cards as if they were printed for the grand opening. Although the actual calendar doesn’t prove useful today, they function quite nicely as bookmarks and miniature rulers.
