That reminds me that there was a time when door-to-door salesmen were legit! I remember my mother lusting after fuller brushes. (Well, not literally...) Most of them were too expensive for her at that time.

I loved staying home from school and seeing all the "people" that came to the house.. Fuller Brush... Milk Man, Bakery Truck Man, Mailman, Insurance Man to collect premiums, Avon Lady, I know I am forgetting some.. The world today is entirely different, isn't it?

We had a vegetable/fruit man who came by twice a week. And our meat order was delivered to our door as well. What was the name of the vacuum company?
