1914158761914. New York: Sully & Kleinteich n.d. Three consecutive annual calendars each consisting of 52-53 weekly leaves each page with an aphorism from a Kipling work within a heavy paper wrapper bound at the top with rawhide. Leaves and wrappers printed in orange and green 1914 & 1915 or orange and black 1916.<br/> <br/> These undoubtedly-unauthorized American calendars came out during the first three years of The Great War across the Atlantic ironically they bear Kipling's favorite Indian symbol of good fortune the swastika. Each page week bears a quote from a Kipling work such as "And a woman is only a woman but a good cigar is a smoke." Sully and Kleinteich was a publisher of paper goods such as moving-picture books for children and calendars. "1914" reads "New York Sully and Kleinteich" on the front cover and has the S&K monogram on the rear; "1916" has just the S&K monogram; "1915" has no indication of publisher at all but clearly matches the other two. "1914" and "1915" are in remarkably near-fine condition; "1916" is lacking most of its horizontal spine and there is some edge-wear to the wrappers. All three are uncommon. Not in Livingston or Stewart. unknown
