« Thar’s Gold In Them Hills
The next time you hear some
body say, “Thar’s gold in them
thar hills,’’ don’t doubt them.
And if the gold turns out to
be in liquid form, don’t be a
bit surprised. Gold is not only
where you find it, but how you
find it. And up in the hill
country of north Georgia, you’re
liable to find the gold is br
ewed and bottled and run into
town at night by the' light‘of
the silvery moon. There’s lots
to be said for making hay while
the sun shines, but the moon
shine partisans like to put in
their two-cents worth from time
♦o time.
Up in Dawsonville, Georgia,
a dealer named Fred Goswick,
Jr., has put in his two-cents
and then some to the highly
publicized but little known art
of moon shine making. On July
4, 1969 the enterprising Gos
wick opened adjacent to his
furniture and appliance store,
what is believed to be the first
Moonshine Museum. And you’ve
never seen anything quite like
either of them.
To begin with, there’s the lo
cation of the Goswick Furniture
Co. You would just naturally
expect a big-volume dealer in a
county of 3,700 to have a prime
on - the - highway location with
acres of parking, lots of bar
gain-proclaiming signs and a
warehouse - like building that
just stretches on and on. Well,
Goswick’s is not even on the
main road. It’s not even in sight
of the main road. And the road
it is on has never even heard
of pavement. Anyway, they do
have this big sign down on the
main highway and an arrow that
points in a general direction
up this dirt road.
So, after you’ve jostled for
about a quarter of a mile down
this road, you’re greeted by
what must be the grandaddy of
all the wooden Indians guarding
the Moonshine Museum and
Goswick Furniture Company.
Right away, you recognize the
Moonshine Museum because it
has a sign telling you what it
is, but it takes you just a
minute to realize that this long
caterpillar of a structure ram
bling down the hill like an aim
less conversation is actually the
Goswick Furniture Co. But
that’s what it is, and if you
want to get in on one of the
wildest tales of success and in
genuity that you’ll ever shake
your head over, just go on inside
and talk with Fred Goswick, Jr.,
who has quite a tale to tell.
In 1963 Goswick was a family
man and employed by the state
highway department. But there
was a lot to be desired in the
way of salary with a growing
family, so, Goswick was left
with a choice between moon
lighting and moonshining and he
opted for the straight and
narrow path.
He started off by borrowing
$lO to buy a catalogue from Ch
arles S. Martin Co. in Atlanta.
After a full day with the high
way department, Goswick went
door to door at night taking
appliance orders.
But finding enough hours in
the day was not his biggest
problem. To begin with, Gos
wick couldn’t get credit any
where. However, he found a man
who would let him borrow mon
ey at a rate of 2% for ten days
on all his orders. “It was high
interest alright, but it got me
started, and that’s what I need
ed.”
So, even though he had the
money to get the merchandise
to make the sale, he still had
no way to make delivery. Gos
wick then made arrangements
with a boy who had a truck to
make the deliveries for him
at a rate of five cents a mile.
Out of the profit portion of the
sale remaining, Goswick always
made it a point to buy one small
item as stock.
As the small stock reservior
built up, Goswick was faced with
a storage problem. He had a
chicken coop, but it had no fl
oor and was really too far off
the main road to put much money
for display purposes. But it was
all he had and he made use of
It.
By this time Goswick had five
dependents but the highway de
partment was only deducting for
four. So, by the end of the year
when he filed for the full five,
he got a return of $lO3. With
this money and by doing his
own work he was able to buy
enough lumber and nails to put
a floor in half of the build
ing a nd fix up a small dis
play room.
This was in 1964 when he was
still working for the highway de
partment and had been selling
for less than a year.
By 1965 he was selling mucl
more - enough, in fact, to buy
an old supply wagon that had
been used to supply stills. He
used the old reprobate machine
as his delivery truck.
All this time Goswick was
salesman, pickup and delivery
man and still working for the
highway department. In addi
tion to this, Goswick went into
neighboring counties and check
ed on over stocks at various
furniture and appliance stores.
He’d make a list of these and
try to push them both in his
store and on his door-to-door
calls. There were some nights
he worked all night and then
went right on out and did his
job for the highway department.
Then in 1966 he had to make
a choice. He had too much to
handle by himself and one of the
jobs had to go, so he left the
highway department and set out
on his own. His wife, Edna, had
been keeping an eye on the st
ore in the daytime, but now Gos
wick went into business with a
vengeance.
The first order of business
was to let folks know who he
was, what he was and where he
was. And that, of course, is
easier thought of than done,
particularly in this day where
everybody and his brother is
trying to sell something with an
advertisement. Goswick opted
for showmanship. His ads inlo
cal papers were always placed
upside down. He’s since found
out that when a person has to
go to a little trouble to find
something out, he usually re
members it pretty well. All
Goswick’s signs, ads and both
his trucks bear the slogan -
“Big Deal Goswick - Where
the Price Is Right.” Goswick
also branched into the surr
ounding, larger counties and in
doing so landed right in the heat
of competition with some of
those same merchants whose
, overstocks he had sold. His ads
went into the county papers of
Hall, Pickens, Dawson, For
syth, Gilmer and Lumpkin Co
unties.
But printed and radio adver
tising can only do so much and
Goswick is out for the most
valuabel of all ads - word of
mouth. And he goes after it in
a big way. He tries to see
that his service is 'tops and
his prices bottom. He. tries to
keep replacement merchandise
on hand when a customer’s
purchase needs repairs. If the
purchase is still in warranty,
the replacement is free. If war
ranty has lapsed there is a
nominal charge. For example,
rental on a color replacement
set is 50? per day. “Folks in
town can afford to care a little
bit less than I can. You go down
to Atlanta and folks that send
their sets to be worked on might
have to go over a week without
one while the set is sittin* in
the shop. But we don’t have that
much population turnover up
here. I do business with the
same folks time and time again.
They know me and I know them
and I want them to be staisfied
with their merchandise and my
service.”
And speaking of stock, Gos
wick has got it. Furniture and
appliances are packed sardine
tight in the low, meandering,
used-to-be chicken coop. And
while Goswick's particular set
up might be a display man’s
nightmare or an architect’s
horror, there’s something just
plain nice about wandering
through the lines and stacks of
furniture and appliances. And a
cleaner former chicken coop
you’ll never see. If you were to
move Goswick’s to the city, it
would be high camp and just
might start a vogue of its own,
but out in the country, it’s just
home folks and a nice place
to be.
Goswick stocks Admiral’s
entire line, General Electric
white goods, RCA television
and stereo, Hamilton washers
and dryers and Maytag and
Revco white goods.
But the “piece do resistance”
of the whole operation is the
new and still a-building Moon
shine Museum, patterned after
the famous Cyclorama in At
lanta. Admission to the museum
is SI.OO for adults and 50?
for kids. Actual stills are dis
played and a recorded commen
tary (complete with background
music) tells the story of Moon
shine in the hills of Georgia.
Most of the work on the mus
eum was done by Carl Phillips,
who has had a great deal of
experience in this line. Gain
esville artist Pat Ledford did
the impressive paintings which
set the stills in their natural
habitat.
The enormous Indian out front
is Cheif White Lightning who
was purchased from the Atlanta
Braves Baseball Team. Gos
wick has spent $20,000 on the
museum and plans to spend even
more. “We’ve only been open
about three weeks and we’ve
already had 500 folks in here.
We ought to really do good when
the word gets around.” And he’s
seeing that the word will get
around with the use of bumper
stickers.

Why does Bill Northcutt
need a new supply
of ‘Sold’ signs?
He builds beautiful custom-designed houses with
roomy interiors, handsome appointments, and
all the extras that today’s home shoppers are
looking for. At a good price, too.
But something else. National housing trends
show that “Sold” on new total-electric homes is
a sign of the times. And Bill Northcutt is with it!
“My houses in Wood Valley* and Fox Chase*
are totally total-electric,” Bill says. “I build noth
ing else. Modern electric heating and cooling
systems are standard in all Northcutt homes, as
are work-saving electric dishwashers, ranges, dis
posers, and numerous other electrical features
that help me sell faster and more profitably.”
Need we say that Bill Northcutt is sold on
total-electric?
•Wood Valley is located at Morrow in Clayton
County. Fox Chane is in DeKalb County.
