DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

To provide a calendar with a better advertising effect, an advertising calendar according to the present invention includes an advertisement portion allowing a user to selectively publish information (such as advertisement, scene information, living stories, or missing people posters) on the advertisement portion. The information can be randomly and individually published on the advertisement portion.

The advertising calendar can be fixed to a working site or in a space of a public transportation vehicle by the fixing portion 11, allowing people to read the information.


The date indicating portion 21 shows the information of date, week, or a daily information of the date in the case of a Chinese lunar calendar.


The information publishing portion 22 shows information to be passed on by the publisher to the user or the viewer, such as governmental publicity or advertisement by a for-profit business unit, providing sufficient information and, thus, increasing utility of the advertising calendar.
