She placed 24 sweets onto a piece of cardboard and each day the young Gerhard would take and eat a sweet. When he grew up Gerhard Lang made the first printed advent calendar in 1908.</P></div></div><hr size="2" color="#666666" /><div style="padding: 10px;"><div style="text-align:left;"><P>Later, in 1946, we see Richard Sellmer producing calendars in Germany. The US authorities had to grant him a license in the now post war Germany which led to his advent calendars becoming known and indeed very popular in the USA.<IMG height="118" width="231" src="http://www.guy-sports.com/humor/christmas/../../fun_pictures/advent_calendar1.jpg" class="imgRight" alt="History Advent Calendar" /></P></div></div><hr size="2" color="#666666" /><div style="padding: 10px;"><div style="text-align:left;">Sellmer's first advent calendar was called 'The Little Town'. The calendar had pictures of many buildings in the town and you would open the windows and the doors to find nice things underneath for each day of advent. </div></div><hr size="2" color="#666666"

relative on the 1st of December.  It arrived in time, however it had plastered on the outside.  'Do not open until Christmas'.  Fortunately, Guy was in contact with the relative on November 29th, to was able to explain persuade them to open the calendar on the 1st December.  When Guy queried it, nobody in dispatch knew realized that advent started 25 days before Christmas.</P></div></div></div></div><br><div style="margin-bottom: 40px;"></div>http://www.guy-sports.com/humor/christmas/christmas_advent_calendar.htmSat, 31 Oct 2009 17:11:09
