History:
**The Dingbat calendar was introduced in 1915 by Charles Frosst. Each year the Dingbats were featured performing scientific investigation or some collective effort of tending to patients. The Dingbat calendar which was distributed to doctors, pharmacists, hospitals and school nurses across the country. It featured a red-nosed, bug-eyed gnome-like character involved in an amusing experiment connected to medical research or hospital treatment. (credit to ponctuationdotcom)**
