Dear Friends: January 2, 1948 
1948 is our 80th year and it is with pleasure we send you our anniversary 
catalog. Included are some pictures taken over the years, Showing the growth 
and improvements we have made. Today we believe we have one of the finest and 
most modern plants in the seed industry to serve you. Eighty years ago our 
founder, John A. Salzer, established a policy of furnishing only the finest 
seeds obtainable at reasonable prices. That policy is rigidly followed today. 
You do not pay a premium for Salzer’s high standard of quality and selection of 
seeds, plants, shrubs and other items we list. 
This year your garden is going to be more valuable and necessary than 
ever before. We are committed to furnish food to the destitute people all over 
the world, and it may be a matter of two or three years before these people can 
take care of their own needs. In the meantime, we will be called upon in the name 
of humanity to help them. Your garden 
will help our situation at home by pro- 
viding the finest of fresh vegetables for 
your table. It will help combat infla- 
tion. The more you grow, the less you will 
have to buy. This means more money for 
‘other things you need. We hear much 
talk of the high cost of living these 
days. Your garden will go a long way 
towards reducing the cost of food. 
Keep a place in the garden for 
flowers. This year again we are happy 
to offer new items of flowers, bulbs 
and plants. You can have lasting 
beauty from early spring until late 
fall and get lots of pleasure growing 
flowers from our seeds, bulbs and 
plants. 
We thank you for your loyalty and 
patronage over the years and sincerely 
hope we may Serve you again and again 
in the years to come. 
. 
Sincerely, 
P.S. Be sure to get our FREE anniver- 
nd ABUNDANCE 
PDE sary gift. It is sent with every order 
7 _of 1.00 or more.
