Description

This 1902 calendar was printed in color on Marinoni presses. It depicts people buying and reading copies of the newspaper from vendors, who are wearing Le Petit Journal hats with visors. Vendors display folded copies mounted on rods; a vendor in the middle of the image is holding up copies to buyers riding on the roof of the horse-drawn bus. The calendar claims that five million people per day read Le Petit Journal, and a million copies of the color supplement are printed each week.
