A Hobbit’s Calendar Month

What a great atmospheric calendar. The petrified, oak forest of Mundon, dramatically captures your Hobbit themed almanac. Featuring September as the birthday month of both Bilbo and Frodo Baggins, and the same month the book was published in 1937, is an apt choice. I wonder if the director could have saved time and money by visiting this part of Essex instead of travelling across the world to New Zealand to film the Hobbit trilogy. Selecting a fantasy font compliments your sepia-tinged, Middle Earth landscape and cleverly authenticates the calendar’s storybook setting.
