Item Description: | An edition of Nathaniel Ames' almanac for 1767, apparently pirated, also appeared with the imprint " .. by the printers and booksellers".

Almanacs, 3157. - English Short Title Catalog, W11392. - Presumably the issue advertised in the Massachusetts gazette and Boston news-letter, Nov. 6, 1766, as "sold by R. & S. Draper, T. & J. Fleet, Edes & Gill, and Green & Russell." No Benjamin West edition for 1767 bearing this imprint is known. - Reproduction of original from Boston Public Library. - Shipton & Mooney, 41677 |
