2014 Suffrage Calendar

I am happy to pass along the news that the 2014 Woman's Suffrage Calendar is now available for sale. The format is similar to last year's calendar, but the content is new. The inside front and back covers focus this year on Miss Isabel Howland, niece of Miss Emily, and some of her activities in local, county, state and national woman's rights movements as well as her commitment to the hamlet of Sherwood. There is a poster image for each month, all different from last year. The birth dates of famous suffragist are listed, along with events occurring each month.

As you know if you saw last year's calendar, these are much more than just a calendar. They are a collector's item, a work of art, an important historic story, and a wonderful gift item.I will be adding my 2013 calendar to the Scipio History Room collection for future viewing. This calendar sold out last year, making it a real collector's item!

The calendar can be obtained online at the Howland Stone Store Museum website www.howlandstonestore.org or locally by contacting Patricia White at 315-364-5587 (or pwhite2299@aol.com). The calendars cost $16.00 (plus postage added for all online orders (@ $3.50).
