Perry & Co’s Permanent Almanac

Late Victorian Brass and gilt metal Permanent Almanac made by Perry & Co

The back swivels around with a small lever, and the front moves when you just push around with your thumb, to use the calendar. Great piece of early engineering.

      I look forward to watching your film. I used to play in Queen Street Gardens opposite the house on Heriot Row he lived in! There was a pond with a small Island which we were told inspired him to write Treasure Island.
