Deutscher Wappen Kalender
There have been at least two different types of heraldic calendars with this name.
The oldest I am aware of dates from 1904. This is a large (18x33 cm) calendar printed by Vogt, Papiermühle, Sachsen (image shown above). The inside shows the monthly calendar and some heraldic images of towns and states.

I have no idea how long this series was issued.
