IN-DEPTH INFORMATION ABOUT THE COLLECTION

Administrative/Biographical History: Garfield and Company of Edison, New Jersey, was the

largest manufactures of Seidlitz Powders in the United States. Garfield and Company was

founded by Isidor Z. Garfield (1863-1951), a New York pharmacist, who began manufacturing

powders in 1908. Garfield was born in Russia and graduated from the University of Moscow

with a degree in chemistry. He came to the United States in 1888 with his wife Frances and their

first-born son, Louis. Three other sons, George, Julius, and Henry, were born in the United

States. Garfield developed an automated process to package reactive ingredients (US Patent

1,091,568) in March, 1914. The process separately packaged the powders in moisture-proof

wrappers so druggists no longer had to mix the compounds. In 1916, Garfield patented a

machine for measuring and compressing powders (US Patent 1,177,854). Both of Garfield’s

patents were assigned to Samuel Loewy of New York City. After Garfield died, his sons, Julius

and George Garfield inherited the business. The New Jersey manufacturing plant closed in 1980.

The collection documents Garfield and Company, a pharmaceutical manufacturer in New Jersey

during the twentieth century. Garfield and Company made Seidlitz Powder, a commonly known

medication composed of a mixture of tartaric acid, sodium bicarbonate, and potassium sodium

tartrate that was used as a mild cathartic by dissolving it in water and then drinking it. The

records include customer files, correspondence, advertising, packaging, audio visual materials,

photographs, packaging, advertising and financial records. The collection provides good insight

into the company during the World War II period and the hardship conditions under which they

operated, such as delays in receiving raw materials and difficulty with labor.

Series 1, Historical Background, 1915-1969 and undated, consists of newspaper clippings and

articles, corporate identity pieces (letterhead and envelopes), correspondence, and audio visual

materials about Garfield and Company. The majority of the correspondence relates to machinery

companies and their ability to provide equipment and expertise to manufacture powders and

handle packaging issues. Other correspondence relates to advertising agencies and the State of

New Jersey Division of Employment Security. The correspondence with Seil, Putt and Rusby,

Inc., documents an analytical, consulting and research chemists firm that conducted testing for

Garfield. The audio visual materials contain an oral history with Julius Garfield, son of Isidor

Garfield on ½” VHS video footage (OV 820.1-2) and a demonstration of how Seidlitz powders

are manufactured. The video footage, of which there are two copies, is approximately one hour in

length and is divided into two segments. The first segment features the manufacturing equipment

producing Seidlitz powders and the second segment features an informal interview with Julius

Garfield discussing his father’s background and his father’s automation of the process of

packaging Seidlitz powders. The audio cassettes (OTC 820.1-2) contain a more detailed oral

history with Julius Garfield. He provides additional information about his father’s background,

his brother’s (especially George’s) background, and the history of the company. Curator Ray

Kondratus, of the Division of Medicine and Science, National Museum of American History,

conducted the oral history interview, circa 1970s.

Series 2, Customer Materials, 1909-1952, includes materials about customers who had a

business relationship with Garfield and Company. The materials are divided into two subseries,

Subseries 1, Index Card Files, 1909-1939, contains customer names, addresses, and order

history from 1909 to the 1920s. They are arranged geographically by city and alphabetically by

documenting where the shipment was sent and who received it.

Series 3, Correspondence, 1937-1952, is arranged alphabetically and consists of letters to and

also here. The War Production Board correspondence contains information about the use and

salvage of raw materials in the factory; requests to purchase certain types of materials; and

compliance with quarterly requests for inventory, purchases, and usage of certain foods and

materials. Included in the general subject files is documentation about insurance and workers

compensation claims for employees of Garfield and Company. The documentation includes

primarily State of New York Department of Labor Workers Compensation forms and

accident/injury reports. The reports provide detailed information on the nature of the

accident/injury, hourly wage and demographic information about the employee.

as Hazeltine and Perkins Drug Company or Gill Brook Laboratories. There are some labels that
