Printed invoice from the J. Goldwater & Co. store,, 4.5 x 8.5 in. – “Groceries, General Merchandise, and Wholesale Liquor Dealers,“ with logo for Anthony & Kuhn Brewing Co., St. Louis upper left. “Branches at Bisbee and Benson,” Arizona. This is the store begun by Senator Barry Goldwater’s father and uncle, pioneers into the Arizona Territory, originally founded in Fairbank.

Four broadsides with quotes from Thomas Jefferson, each 9.75 x 12.5 in. Accompanied by a typed explanation: “I would have hand written this personally, however doing it 535 times [one for each member of Congress, plus] seemed too much like being back in school and the teacher saying write this 500 times.

“The enclosed parchments with Jefferson’s thoughts were printed in this manner in hopes some would be framed and displayed to refresh our memory as to the thoughts of those who laid the framework of our government. To me, we have drifted far from these concepts which made it possible for this nation to become great, which set the people free to develop their talents and make the most of themselves….” It is signed “K.H. Greider.” One of these has to do with not borrowing money and paying off the national debt; another is “My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government.”; “The policy of the American government is to leave their citizens free, neither restraining nor aiding them in their pursuits.” And the fourth again picks up the theme of the danger of public debt.

There is a fifth broadside, not attributed to Jefferson, but executed in the same style with the same typeface outlining someone’s “cycle of civilization” with images from classical Egypt, Rome and Greece. The Federal Register, Vol 11, 1946, mentions Kendig H. Greider, of the K.H. Greider Mfg. Co. Inc. of Springfield, Ohio.
