Did your parents have an "oil man" deliver olive oil, dry sausage, etc. to your house?
Yup. And don't forget the Fuller Brush man!
Even the insurance man came door to door. Everyone made "house calls." That personal touch is gone forever. And I'm not being a sentimentalist when I post that. It happens to be the truth. The plain, sad, ugly truth .
