A four piece advertising set including a Penn-Dixie Cement perpetual desk calendar, an embossed card holder with lid, and a mixed deck of playing cards. The perpetual calendar, likely dating from the 1920s–1930s, features a rotating mechanism to adjust the date and month, serving as a practical office tool and promotional piece for Penn-Dixie Cement. The accompanying card holder is cast with intricate dragon, floral, and pagoda motifs in relief, adding a decorative element to its functional form. Inside is a deck comprised of assorted cards, including railroad advertising examples such as The Milwaukee Road and Illinois Central winter vacation promotions, along with other decorative patterned cards. This grouping highlights early 20th century advertising and design, blending branded utility objects with the promotional playing cards of the period.
