Calendar with pixelated background of a photo of a large apple. It has a color gradient, beginning green on the left, yellow in the center, and ending red on the right. The colors are muted by some grey pixels that add more depth to the image. The pixels range in size, with the highlight of the apple showing the smallest pixels, and the shadows showing the largest. The top tenth of the image shows fourteen columns and four rows of black, bolded, and serif text. The top row reads, “S S M T W T F S S M T W T F,” with numbers below, counting up to 31. The final row also reads, “AUGUST 1970.” In very small print, in the bottom right, it reads, “Thirty second of a series by/ S. D. Scott Printing Company Inc./ Designed by Russell S. Winricms”
