Neuer Lancästerscher Calender, 1808 (New Lancaster Almanac, 1808)
In 16th century almanacs and in Early-American poetry a sun couldn't just be a sun. It had to be Phoebus the Sun God from ancient mythology. And the moon had to be Diana.
...as in "...tis an omen bad, the yoemen say, if Phoebus shows his face the second day."
...or as in ..."scarce shall setting Phoebus vanish, ere the deathless deed be done," an exact quote of the very-poetic Boston Patriots when they were dumping tea overboard at the Boston Party, if you believe Early-American poets.
This bright-and-shining face smiles down on the front covers of all the almanacs printed by Johann and his sons.
Whatever the name of that smiley-faced God, his radiance certainly was working well for Lancaster in 1808, when Johann's sons Georg and Peter printed this almanac.
Lancaster City was basking in its urban prosperity. It had flourished, to become one of the largest inland cities in the United States at that time. It had even become the capital of Pennsylvania, a title the city held from 1799 to 1812.
Lancaster County was equally prosperous, and had become a Breadbasket of America. It had become the proverbial Land of Milk and Honey.
Thankfully that happy-faced Sun God still shines bright here in Lancaster, despite the threats of Father Time.
