[Almanac, 1823. Switzerland]
1823 SWISS ALMANAC WITH WOODCUTS. Nutzlicher Haus-Kalender oder der Richtige Bot aus das Jahr Christi 1824
Argau Switzerland: Jakob Diebold 1823. Very Good. 4to. 48 pp. Pictorial wrappers stitched as issued. Tables printed in black & red lower page corners folded some moderate edge wear foxing and mild waterstaining. Well worn but generally very good with a few small tears along edges. An extremely scarce 1824 provincial Swiss Almanac well illustrated with curious woodcuts including an elaborate title-page border in the neo-classical style back cover depiction of the slaughter of the Greek patriarch a double-page fold-out plate of a castle in Baden small dirt stain at top and twelve emblematic woodcuts depicting astrological attributes of each month. Owing to the fact that only one other copy seems to have survived it is not surprising that we have been unable to locate reproductions of any of these woodcuts published elsewhere. The title-page woodcut appears to have been signed in the border the artist / engraved "Z. Morman." Several of the woodcut zodiac symbols are signed "Z."<br /> <br /> Jakob Diebold a bookbinder took over the publication of this Haus-Kalender a.k.a. the Swiss "Baden Kalendar" from Heinrich Joseph Keiser sometime after 1808 during which time he ran both the bindery and the Baldinger printing press. Sales of the almanac under Diebold greatly improved largely due to the improving economic and intellectual conditions of Baden. This calendar contains a "Directory of school books children's writings and writing materials which are available from B.J. Diebold book printers and bookbinders in Baden." The almanac includes a report on the New Year i.e. 1824 a directory and covers a range of topics including chronology astronomy astrology and herbal medicine.<br /> <br /> The ZB Zurich has scattered holdings of Diebold's publication namely: 1811-1812; 1819-1821; 1824 the present year 1825-1826; 1831; 1837; 1846. The Landesmuseum has three unrelated issues 1817-1819. Jakob Diebold unknown

[Almanac.] More, Roger [pseudonym.]
Almanac. More Roger pseudonym. Poor Roger 1758. The American Country Almanack for the year of Christian Account 1758. . Calculated according to art and fitted to the province of New-York . By Roger More philodespot.
<b><i>Scarce 1758 Almanac with Great F&I War Content</i></b><p>This almanac provides vivid insight into the impact of the French & Indian War on the American colonies. A fiery poetic narrative is carried through at the head of each monthly calendar page. For instance August's verse:</p><p>"This Month alas! Proclaims a double Woe</p><p>Both 'Swego and Lake George our Losses know;<br /></p><p>Fort William-Henry felt the fatal stroke</p><p>From faithless Villains. Who their promise broke</p><p>False to their Words our Men became their Prey;</p><p>And do we yet a just Revenge delay."</p><p>Following the calendar pages is a four-page "Continuation of the Historical Account of Affairs in North America…" which provides a summary of military actions from the loss of the fort at Oswego in August 1756 through "the last Day of August 1757 since which we can add no further Intelligence."</p><p>Also of significance is a full page devoted to "A short discourse on Comets with some account of that which is expected to appear in the present year 1758." It references Dr. Halley's work and includes this nod to the progress of the science of astronomy: "If therefore this comet return according to this period in 1758 and there is the greatest reason to think it will astronomy will then have something new to boast of." Halley's comet as it is now known did indeed appear on Christmas night 1758.</p><p>A rare almanac. RareBookHub notes only one listing: an auction in 1924 for which no price was given. ESTC identifies 3 institutional holders: AAS 2 copies NY Historical Society and the Huntington Library.</p><p><b>References:</b> ESTC: W36489. Evans: 7960. Drake <i>Almanacs</i>: 5712.</p><p><b>Condition:</b> String tied. Some mild staining and a bit of edge roughness. One closeable tear at the gutter of the first leaf. A strong impression throughout. Overall a very well-preserved example.</p>ICN 7659. Printed and sold by J. Parker and W. Weyman, at the new-printing-office in Beaver-Street

Paris: Pagnerre Libraire-Editeur rue de Seine 18; Typographie de Henri Plon 1865. Duodecimo 14.5 x 10.5 cm. 200 pages. Engraved illustrations in the text. Table des Matieres. The eighth year of this popular French almanac with calendar and ephemeris but unlike most American "culinary almanacs" the bulk of this work is indeed related to food with sections on various foodstuffs vegetables birds fish sauces etc. and many recipes. The attractive wrapper illustration by "F. Grenan" depicts two women working in the kitchen one cooking at the stove the other writing while handling some vegetables and birds. Is she recording a recipe or perhaps just back from market and keeping up accounts Like other copies of this almanac we've seen the illustration is hand-colored. Dog ears to some pages; otherwise internally sound and clean. Wrapper corners chipped and light soiling. Near very good in a handsome custom-made clamshell box. OCLC locates five institutions with single issues of runs of this periodical. Pagnerre, Libraire-Editeur, rue de Seine, 18; Typographie de Henri Plon unknown
