| General note | Low's preface, p. [2], begins: "... I am presenting you with the fiftieth impression of my Almanack." Nathanael Low the younger here seems to pretend to be Nathanael Low the elder, his father, whose first almanac was for 1762, and who died in September 1808 after presumably completing the issue for 1809. At the foot of the page in the American Antiquarian Society's copy is a manuscript note: "Low has been dead many years." |
| General note | The preface indicates that Low is responsible for the entire content of the almanac. |
| General note | Title vignette (zodiac). |
