Those looking for a last-minute Christmas gift that will be treasured all year long may find the Haverhill Public Library calendar fits the bill.
With photographs dating back to 1865 and spanning as far as 1949, the calendar features more than a dozen of images from all across the city. It is available for $12 plus sales tax at the library’s Friends Shop, open Monday and Tuesday this week.
The cover photograph is a panorama of the old Haverhill Post Office from around 1910 in Washington Square. Inside, there are 13 more, including old City Hall from 1903, Merrimack River flooding in 1936, Victorian houses in 1896 and an iceman’s summer delivery in 1900.
The Friends’ Shop, open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., is within the library at 99 Main St. It was established in 1989 and is staffed by volunteers.
