This lot consists of two vintage linen calendar tea towels, which were commonly used as decorative kitchen wall hangings. The first towel is dated 1971 and features a multi-colored nature motif depicting five North American birds: a Red-Headed Woodpecker, Blue Jay, Cardinal, Scarlet Tanager, and Eastern Bluebird. Each bird is identified by printed text below its illustration. The calendar for the year 1971 is arranged in separate month blocks surrounding the central bird images. The second towel is dated 1987 and features a religious house blessing theme. It depicts a central illustration of the Praying Hands motif accompanied by the text: Bless this house Oh Lord, we pray, Make it safe By night and day. The design is accented with floral dogwood-style motifs and a blue geometric patterned border at the bottom. The 1987 calendar is arranged around the central text and illustration. Both towels are printed on off-white or cream-colored linen or linen-blend fabric. Dimensions: Approximately 17 inches x 27 inches.
