It would help to see a picture to confirm.
However, I am pretty sure the first card says "Märchenkalender" (fairy tale calendar) - and you
- missed to type the diacritics in Märchen (please note that these are not just decorations in German)
- misread an k for a t, which can happen in some fonts (please read this Wikipedia section for an example)
Your second example lacks the diacritics as well. It should be "Das übertretene Verbot" - and it seems to be the German title of a Finnish fairy tale. You can find a German version here.
Thanks so much. That makes perfect sense.

The word Marchentalender does not exist. However, from the context one can infer that the word is probably Märchenkalender.
The word Märchenkalender is a composition of Märchen, meaning fairy tale, and Kalender, meaning calendar. Therefore, a Märchenkalender is a fairy tale calendar.
The words das übertretene Verbot may be translated as the violated ban.
