Parkersburg West Virginia 1936 Star Grocer Company Billhead 8.5 x 5.5

This 1936 billhead from The Star Grocer Company in Parkersburg, West Virginia documents a wholesale grocery transaction during the interwar period.

Parkersburg functioned as a regional commercial center along the Ohio River, with wholesale grocers supplying food products to smaller retail stores across surrounding communities. The printed header establishes a clear business identity, identifying the firm as a wholesaler and listing its location, while the structured layout organizes quantities, product descriptions, and pricing within a clean ledger format typical of early twentieth-century trade documentation.

Typed entries list items such as apricots, peaches, and prunes, along with quantities and calculated totals, providing a concise record of inventory movement within the grocery supply chain. The inclusion of terms and contract reference text on the document reflects standardized commercial practices, illustrating how routine transactions were documented and managed in regional wholesale distribution networks.
