Rare ''Greeting 1906 California Powder Works, San Francisco, Cal.'' Chromo-Lithograph Calendar/Poster, approx. 19.5''x14.75'', with metal bands intact, and March 1906 remaining calendar. California Powder Works was the first American explosive powder manufacturing company West of the Rocky Mountains, and became a subsidiary of DuPont in 1903 and operated under the DuPont name until 1906. It is interesting to note that April 1906 was the date of the big San Francisco earthquake. Condition of this beautiful poster is near excellent, with vivid and bright colors and excellent detail, and only slight edgewear. A rare find. Est.: $4,000-$6,000.
