Description: Photograph of a Hoster Brewery delivery truck, ca. 1910. The L. Hoster Brewing Company was founded on S. Front Street in Columbus, Ohio, in 1836. The original owners were businessman Louis Hoster along with Jacob Silbernagel and G. M. Herancourt, whom Hoster later bought out. The company continually increased beer production until they were putting out over 300,000 barrels a year by the turn of the century. In 1904 Hoster joined a consolidated group of Columbus breweries to form the Hoster-Columbus Associated Breweries Co., whose German-style beers remained popular until the company was shut down in 1919 due to Prohibition.

Description: Photograph of Dr. Anna Bishop speaking to a group at the Cultural Arts Center in Columbus, Ohio, February 23, 1986. Dr. Bishop (1916-2004) was a local historian, scholar and author active in the Columbus African American community. The Columbus Free Press began as a bi-weekly publication in Columbus, Ohio, in 1970. An underground newspaper, it replaced the Ohio State University publication The People, Yes. The earliest known issue of the newspaper appeared on January 4, 1971. The newspaper underwent a series of name changes over the decades, with titles including the Columbus Free Press & Cowtown Times (1972-1976), the Columbus Freepress (1976-1992) and The Free Press (1992-1995). The paper, which covered many liberal and progressive causes, was an alternative to mainstream news sources in central Ohio with the slogan “The Other Side of the News.” In 1995, the paper ceased publication briefly before reemerging as a website in early 1996, and returning as a print publication under the Free Press title in the form of a quarterly journal in 1998. Published under various frequencies during the first part of the 21st century, the Free Press again became a nonprofit monthly publication in 2017 with both a print and web presence, published by the Columbus Institute for Contemporary Journalism and operated by a volunteer staff and board.
