Beschreibung
Beschreibung:
[24]pp. Small octavo. Gathered signatures, stitched. Slight foxing and toning, heavier to title page. Minor edge wear without loss to text. Titlepage with large chip in lower right edge (minor loss of text of verso), two small tears in lower edge which touch text without affecting legibility. Interior otherwise clean. Good. Aside from the usual calendars and notices accompanied by brief snippets of verse, this almanac contains a several-page "Dialogue between Rusticus and Academicus" and a brief moral story titled "The Striking Fate of Guilt." The present copy also contains contemporary manuscript notes in ink calculating the total distance of a trip from Hartford to Charleston by way of Philadelphia and Williamsburg. ESTC notes two states of this revolutionary-era almanac; this is the state with "Hartford" set in italic type on the titlepage and which begins the verso with "Eclipses." "Except for the imprint and the second line of the title, the state of the present almanac with 'Eclipses' at the head of p. [2] is identical in content and typography with THE NEW-ENGLAND ALMANACK for the year of our Lord 1781.by the professor of mathematicks in Yale-College (Worcester : Anthony Haswell)" - ESTC. EVANS 17003. DRAKE 335. ESTC W25564. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers WRCAM56976

12mo. [24]pp. Stitched. Bit of corner wear, but text retained. Good+. A rare Revolutionary-era Connecticut almanac. ESTC locates it only at AAS, NYHS, Beinecke, and Brigham Young University. NAIP notes two states of gathering A: this one has the imprint 'Hartford' in Roman type rather than italics, and begins page [2] with 'Astronomical Notes.' The almanac features 'A Dialogue between Rusticus and Academicus,' much astronomical data, and a table of distances. Evans 17003. Drake 335. Trumbull 76. ESTC W25564.
