The Perpetual Calendar has 14 one-year calendars, one for each common year (year that does not have a February 29) that starts on each day of the week, and one for each leap year that starts on each day of the week.

 Frank Morgan's Math Chat - Identical Calendars for 2000
Leap years occur every four years, and every seventh leap year starts on a Saturday, so calendars like 2000 occur in 2000 - 28 = 1972, 1972 - 28 = 1944, and 1944 - 28 = 1916.
The first identical year before 1900 is not 1916 - 28 = 1888 as you might expect, because 1900 breaks the pattern by not being a leap year.
In Russia the earliest identical year was 1944, since Russia did not adopt the new calendar until after the revolution in 1918.
