  Typographically identical to the Farmers' Almanack for the year of our Lord 1807 (1806.040) with the exception of the word "Virginia" substituted for "Farmers'" on title page. Clearly a joint venture printed for distribution in Alexandria, Fredericksburg, and Richmond; Gray was a partner in the Alexandria firm of Robert & John Gray which recently opened a branch store in Fredericksburg; Pumfrey conducted a major bookbindery in Richmond at this time.
