Add a charming touch of mid-century schoolhouse nostalgia to your workspace or vintage collection with this rare Vintage Enesco Plastic Desk Novelty Set. Titled "The Graduate Calendar With Thermometer", this retro desk accessory features a sweet little graduate figurine nestled between a manual perpetual calendar and a column-style thermometer. This piece comes complete with its original vintage box, making it an excellent commemorative gift or a standout addition to an Enesco collection. Item Features & Specifications Brand/Manufacturer: Enesco Imports Corp. (Chicago, ILL., U.S.A.) Country of Manufacture: Hong Kong Item Model: E-1979 Design: Features a young boy graduate in a black cap and gown holding a white graduation scroll/diploma. Perpetual Calendar: Manual slot-style desk calendar with removable card inserts for months, days of the week, and numerical dates. Thermometer: Built-in display reading temperatures in both Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F). Material: Molded plastic composition. Markings: Incised with "MADE IN HONG KONG" on the back panel and stamped with "E-1979 ©ENESCO IMPORTS CORP., CHICAGO, ILL., U.S.A." on the underside of the base. Condition & Completeness Report Overall Condition: Very good vintage cosmetic condition with minor surface dust and light wear consistent with age and display. Thermometer Note: Please note that the thermometer does not appear to be functioning and is being sold as-is for display purposes. Calendar Cards: Includes a collection of original double-sided card inserts for the calendar slot, allowing you to manually adjust the display. Missing Pieces: Please note that the number #1 card is missing from the set. The numerical card layout is incomplete, though a large assortment of core numbers, months, and weekdays are present (as shown laid out in the gallery photos). Original Box: Included! The box features classic retro graphics and a side panel checkmark indicating this is the "Boy Graduate" version of the novelty item. The cardboard shows some moderate shelf wear, light staining/discoloration, and soft edges typical for its age, but it remains structurally intact.
