1848 Leap Year Calendar – Original Papal States Rome Broadside
Original typographic wall calendar titled “Calendario per l’Anno Bisestile 1848”, printed in Rome within the Papal States.
This is a large single-sheet broadside, intended for domestic and civic use, featuring:
Complete monthly calendar
Saints’ days
Lunar phases
Astronomical references
Civil and chronological tables
Printed by Stamperia dell’Iride, Strada Magnanapoli no. 29, Rome.
The calendar bears the original green fiscal stamp, confirming its official circulation and period authenticity. The year 1848 holds exceptional historical significance, marking the revolutionary movements and the political crisis of the Papal States, making such calendars valuable documentary artifacts of their time. Condition: Original and unrestored. The sheet shows central folds, toning, scattered stains, and edge losses, all consistent with an ephemeral paper item from 1848. These flaws do not affect its authenticity or historical value.
Size: 39.5 x 49.5 cm
A rare surviving example of a mid-19th century Roman calendar broadside.
