Julius Golz, born ca. 1849 in Pennsylvania, worked as an artist and lithographer in Philadelphia from 1867 to ca. 1890. Primarily
a lithographer of decalcomania (i.e., decals) and showcards, he partnered with his close friend and fellow lithographer Herman
Pfeil to form Pfeil & Golz in New York City (1882); Pfeil & Golz "impermiographs" in Philadelphia at 501 Chestnut Street (1883);

Golz and Pfeil resided together in a boarding house operated by Golz's mother, Christiana Golz, at 614 Callowhill Street (Ward
13) in the late 1860s and at 407 North Fourth Street in Camden, New Jersey beginning in 1873. Both lithographers remained
residents of Camden, New Jersey, eventually residing in neighboring properties on Elm Street until at least 1910. Julius married
French-born Alphonsine (b. 1850) and had two children, Julius, Jr. (b. ca. 1879) and Walter (b. ca. 1882).
