From the record
Summary
Status: HISTORICAL/CLOSED. Pass 50 directly recovered a period advertisement image preserved by Tavern Trove. The advertisement says Selma Brewery was 'in successful operation' and prepared to furnish ale, lager beer and porter, and is signed G. L. Schmidt & Co. The repository dates the advertisement to 1867. This proves a named Selma brewing operation at period-advertisement level, but the original newspaper title/date/page, exact site, partnership membership, ownership-at-closure and exact closing year remain unresolved; 1868 is specialist timeline metadata only.
