112th Edition! 2009 Ring-Standard Calendar In 1897, Louise B. Graves of Boston designed a small desk calendar for a friend. She delighted family and friends every year with a Ring-Standard Calendar, and a successful small business developed. In 1942 Ms. Graves chose as her successor family friend Mary Sage Shakespeare, who continues to participate in planning the calendar. The Ring-Standard Calendar has changed little in its 112 years, with only a handful of artists who have ever created designs. Charlotte Greenewalt, Mrs. Shakespeare's cousin, assisted in the preparation of this year's calendar. The botanical motif was originally created by Mrs. Shakespeare for the 1950 edition. As always, it shows the phases of the moon and the signs of the zodiac. The calendar measures 4 ¼" x 3 ¼", is printed on heavy recycled paper, and is presented in a gold gift box.
