Notes

Imprint states: "Petersburg: Published by John W. Campbell." Item was printed for Campbell by Joseph Cushing of Baltimore; text herein is typographically identical to two 1817 almanacs that Cushing issued there – the Town and Country Almanac (Shaw & Shoemaker 51633) and the Washington Almanac (Shaw & Shoemaker 39711) – complete with an advertisement for his bookstore on the last two pages; only variations in text are in changes to the title and the imprint that differentiate each of the three editions from one another; copy of Campbell's Petersburg edition filmed by the Early American Imprints Series is an interleaved variant with manuscript notations on the blank pages therein.
