Paper art calendar advertising Ott Brothers of Charles Town, West Virginia; the original calendar is missing. At the center of the panel, there is an oval shaped print of a painting of a man and a woman loading produce onto a horse drawn cart. There are bordering indentations in the cardstock around the image, creating a matted frame. Text at bottom of the image reads: AUTUMN HARVEST and is copyrighted 1905 by R. Hill. Above the image reads text: Compliments of... OTT BROTHERS SHOES AND HATS CHARLES TOWN, W.VA. There is a hole at the top of the panel for hanging. There are staple holes below the image, where the calendar would have been attached. See late 1890s photo of Ott Brothers Store (Liberty St. near intersection with George St.) in ARC669.Acquisition
