Annual publication from local man, a calendar (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

almanac

'annual publication' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'from local man a calendar' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'ALMANAC' can be found hidden inside 'local man a calendar'.

(Other definitions for almanac that I've seen before include "Sailor's or farmer's calendar" , "Annual publication containing information in a particular field" , "issue every year" , "Annual list of dates" , "Register" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
