T1  - The New-England diary, or Almanack for the year of our Lord 1725. ...By a native of New England.
DA  - 1725 [i.e., 1724]
CY  - Boston :
AU  - Bowen, Nathan,
AU  - Franklin, James,
PB  - Printed and sold by J. Franklin, at his shop in Union-Street, near the Green Dragon, where may be had the same almanack printed on a broad-side,
PP  - Boston :
PY  - 1725 [i.e., 1724]
N1  - At head of title: MDCCXXV.
N1  - Two versions of this almanac were issued over the same pen-name and thus allegedly by the same author, the other being printed at Boston by B. Green. Franklin's edition, unlike Green's, is not signed by Bowen, and is said to be a pirated almanac. Cf. Nichols, Charles L. "Note on the almanacs of Massachusetts." Proc. Amer. Antiq. Soc., n.s. 22 (1912): 54. The calculations on the calendar pages of the two issues are basically identical. The notes on the calendar pages largely differ, particularly in that the Franklin issue omits the abundant planetary and zodiacal information found in the issue by Green, and includes church days, which Green's edition lacks. The respective eclipse notes are versions of each other.
N1  - Green's version includes also several pages of astronomical matter, animadversions on the almanac author Nathaniel Whittemore, and a table of roads. None of these appears in the Franklin edition, which contains instead two pages entitled "The principal holy-days in the year explain'd." - Later almanac authors occasionally issued similarly varying editions by different publishers, and possibly the two present versions are legitimate and intended for different audiences.
N1  - Advertised in the New-England courant, Boston, Nov. 16/23, 1724.
N1  - Reproduction of original from Boston Public Library.
