Additional Information:
This is only the third year of publication for the Ayer's American
Almanac. The Ayer's American Almanacs featured testimonials and
advertisements for Ayer's medicinal products. The Almanacs also
included a calendar, moon phases, holidays and much more information.
At one point the Ayer Company boasted that their distribution of these
almanacs was second only to that of the Bible!
