Goodwill of Southern New Jersey and Greater Philadelphia received quite the contribution from an anonymous donor — an intact pre-revolutionary war newspaper. The Association of Mature American Citizens [AMAC] reports that the Dec. 28, 1774 edition of the Pennsylvania Journal and Weekly Advertiser was appraised at $18,000. Appraiser Robert Snyder, who authenticated the newspaper, noted that there are three other copies of the same paper at Yale, Illinois State University and Chicago University.
