Betty Boop Calendar

Each new year, new Betty Boop calendars hit store shelves. Betty Boop illustrates their months with season-relevant poses and images. Page after page features Betty in just about every imaginable style of garb. She’ll lounge on a raft in the water, tropical drink in hand, in the month of July. She’ll clutch a bouquet of flowers and be surrounded by Valentine-themed hearts in February. Come December, she’ll prance in front of a brightly lit Christmas tree.

You’ll find Betty Boop calendars in all sizes-some to fit squarely on your desk, others to be tacked up on your wall. Colours and shades vary. There are mellow pastel calendars and others with bold red, indigo, and violet. The prices of Betty Boop calendars will vary. But just about all are on the side of reasonable. Expect to pay somewhere between $8 and $16.

Are you a fan of horoscopes? If you follow the stars and the meanings behind their alignments, then an astrology-themed Betty Boop calendar would be right up your alley. There is a 12-page calendar that illustrates each month’s astrological sign with a relevant image of Betty. February is Aquarius, so the picture is Betty in a Grecian robe and a water jug in one hand. For November’s Scorpio sign, she rides a giant scorpion. And so on.

Another Betty Boop calendar commemorates Betty Boop’s unforgettable stage presence. All 12 pages show her swaying and dancing, legs flaying or kicking in the air. You don’t know what number her band is playing, but it’s obviously something very catchy.

Betty Boop’s sex appeal gets played up in some desk calendars whose illustrations are asplash with bold backgrounds dotted with lip smooches and star Betty in risqué bustiers-and-fishnet-stockings outfit combinations, or halter tops and mini skirts, etc.

Some calendars are more domestic in their tone. Enter the Betty Boop calendar that leads with a cover image of Betty Boop in a black-and-white housemaid outfit and running a vacuum cleaner. It’s not just any old vacuum cleaner, mind you-note the bright pink-and-yellow caption that reads “Betty Boop introducing the Boop-o-matic.”

Most calendars 28VX6ZVXNN85 are standard paper booklets. But a few unique calendars use other materials. One rare calendar is actually a wooden wall display that marks each month with a corresponding Betty Boop figurine. This is a rare one, so plan on searching far and wide for it if you have it in mind to buy it.
