Boston: N. Willi, 1779. [24]pp. Dbd. Minor foxing. Very good. Revolutionary-era almanac, containing the usual calendar and entertaining tidbits, and an interesting cut of a lunar eclipse on the first leaf. At the end of the final leaf, the printer has advertised cash given for cotton and linen rags - needed to make paper and in short supply due to the war. Also a listing of the Friends yearly meetings, and a list of major roads to Boston and their public houses. EVANS 16325. DRAKE 3289 (Inventory #: WRCAM43381)
