Vintage 1947 Promotional Advertising Calendar Hanger – Krantz Service (Hart, MI)
Featuring \"Road to the Coast\" Art Print by Marius Hubert-RobertUp for sale is a wonderful piece of mid-century Michigan advertising and automotive history. This original 1947 holiday calendar hanger was distributed by Krantz Service, a long-running garage and International Harvester farm machinery dealership located in Hart, Michigan (Oceana County)What makes this specific piece incredibly scarce is that it features the complete, intact, 12-month paper calendar pad for 1947 still attached at the bottom. Typically, these tear-away pads were removed month-by-month and thrown away, making a fully intact survivor highly collectible for ephemera and regional history buffs.Design Details:

• The Artwork: Features a vibrant, textured lithograph print of the iconic painting \"Road to the Coast\" by renowned French artist Marius Hubert-Robert. It depicts a scenic, tree-lined path leading toward a shoreline cottage with coastal sailboats visible in the background. This has a GLASS (fully in tact) cover with gold foil edges.
• Mounting: The print is securely displayed using classic 1940s-style gold-foil embossed decorative corners on a sturdy cardboard backing backdrop.
• Typography: The top reads \"KRANTZ SERVICE, Hart, Michigan\" in clean mid-century block lettering. The bottom calendar flap features an elegant, classic cursive script that reads \"Greetings of the Season.\"

Condition Report:

• Overall: Good original vintage condition considering its age.
• Calendar Pad: Excellent—fully intact with all pages present.
• Flaws to Note: Please see pictures for exact physical details. There is minor age-appropriate edge wear, light toning, and dust on the cardboard mount. The art print and calendar text remain bright and highly legible.
