This calendar is a gift from a zen temple.
The figure is one of the Buddhist saints called 'Ji-zo bo-sa-tsu'.
A priest draws the the word and picture by hand every year and delivers it to us.
By the way, I have already got various kinds of calendars till now.
They are from liquor shop, construction company, electric apparatus shop, Agricultural joint union, car shop, Yakult, Chugoku Electric Power Co. and so on.
When I am presented these calendar, I feel that a New Year is around the corner !
