1. Title: "Harvesting Abundance: A Glimpse into Benjamin Franklin's Poor Richard's Almanack - September" This print showcases a typical page from Benjamin Franklin's renowned Poor Richard's Almanack for the month of September, dating back to the years between 1706 and 1790. The Almanack, a brainchild of Franklin's, was not only a practical guide for farmers and common folk but also a source of wit, wisdom, and proverbs. The image on this page highlights the bountiful harvest of the season. Corn stalks laden with ripe ears, pumpkins, gourds, and bundles of wheat are depicted, symbolizing the abundance and prosperity that September brought. The zodiac sign of Libra, represented by scales, is also present, emphasizing the balance and equilibrium that this month embodies. A stanza from the Almanack, penned by Franklin, reads as follows: "In September's golden harvest gleams, The sun-kissed fruits of labor's beams, Reap and store, for winter's cold, The bounty of the earth to hold." This verse underscores the importance of harvesting and preserving the fruits of labor during this month, preparing for the harsh winter ahead. The weather forecast, another essential feature of the Almanack, is also included, providing valuable information on the expected conditions for farmers and settlers. This historical print offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the wisdom, practicality, and charm of Benjamin Franklin's Poor Richard's Almanack.
