Beschreibung:

Lot of 23. Almanacs were intended for a single year's use, so they were often printed on lesser papers that today have nearly universally browned. They are often unnumbered, the pages not trimmed. They were also intended to be used often, if not daily, so they frequently came apart and their owners sometimes stitched them back together. Please be aware that these are in less than perfect condition and may be incomplete. But this is often just another part of the item's history and charm. Perkins, George.
