It is associated with Reuel Colt Gridley, who reportedly lost a bet and had to carry a {{convert|50|lb|adj=on}} sack of flour throughout the town. The flour was sold as a benefit to raise money for the U.S. Sanitary Commission, which aided wounded Union soldiers. The sack was sold and resold, raising considerable funds in Austin, in Nevada, and in the East, in a campaign supported by Mark Twain.[2] The building is a one-story granite stone building. Also known as Gridley & Hobart Store and as Gridley Store Museum, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.[1][2] Its current exterior appearance dates from it being renovated in c.1985.[2] In 2003, it was operated as a museum by the Austin Historical Society.[2] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|version=2010a}} {{Nevada State Historic Places/Lander}}2. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url={{NRHP url|id=03000752}} |title=National Register of Historic Places Registration: Gridley Store / Gridley & Hobart Store ; Gridley Store Museum |author=J.
