Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - 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 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.
