I have enjoyed reading the emails bringing back so many memories from my childhood. I lived near Portland Ave. and 22nd Street until I was in the 1st grade. We then moved to the Southend of Louis- ville. We had a man that came around selling Charles Chips in a tin cannister. They were always so fresh and delicious. We also had an ice cream vendor whose vehicle was round-shaped and spun around. I wondered how he could steer it straight! Also, Mr. Softee and Mr. Frosty came through with wonderful ice cream selections. Priscilla
Oh my, I can just smell those scrumptious huge glazed donuts, still warm, in huge trays in the Donaldson wagon, as it came through the government housing project at 12th and Hill. We moved there when I was 5 after my father got a job at duPont, making neoprene rubber for the war. The housing project was built for government workers and was new and clean at that time. I had lots of little friends and we all had great fun playing in the yards between the buildings, where it was very safe. It is a sad sight now, and heartbreakingly dangerous for those living there. Back to the FOOD - - I also remember that on special occasions Mom would buy from the Donaldson's wagon one of their sheet-cakes - - chocolate with chocolate icing. It was huge (or so it seemed to me then) and very delicious. But their most special item to me was those wonderful glazed donuts - - twice as big in diameter as the little Krispy Kremes of today. Our glass bottles of milk were also delivered by the Sealtest milkman. I remember well the ice cream man riding his bicycle-cart down the sidewalk which ran between the buildings, and being so thrilled on the rare occasion when Mom let us buy a chocolate stick or a popsicle. I recall also one year (in the 1940s) when there was a polio epidemic, and Mom would not let us buy from the ice cream man for fear that we would catch polio from him or one of the children who gathered around him. We were allowed to play only with our good friends who lived just next door, until the epidemic faded. Thanks for bringing up all these great memories which have lain silent for so many years. I really enjoyed this trip down memory lane! Martha

I remember the Donaldson Bread man how happy were those days, lived in a little area where blacks lived called the bottoms right off preston and Gaulbert street sandwiched between floyd and lee street where halhall high school was I know it is not spelled correct also waited for the ice man with his horse and wagon his mane was Mr. seay one of our neighbors, remember when my brother went off to world war two lives in between the railroad would see the troop trains carrying the soldiers to and returning my brother the night he returned from the wan jumped off right in our neighborhood boy were we glad to see him my how memories linger thank God for the memories when we were colored and if we were poor we did not know it
Those were good days in Portland. I lived at 3127 Portland, right across the street from where the buses turned around. My home is no longer there. It was torn down and a gas station sits where it used to be. At one time my grandparents dug up the back yard to find two underground rooms there with lots of things that had been thrown in there. I guess the rooms are still underground. We were told that at one time they were part of the underground railroad and that they connected to tunnels that went to the river. I remember the Donaldson man, the vegetable man and also there was a man that used to come around and he would holler "rag man". We all remember when...... and they were good. Beverly
Ah.... yes .... Donaldson's Bakery. I remember the most beautifully decorated and delicious birthday cakes being delivered right to our home. And what a treat to see and smell all the goodies on the 'basket' he carried to our door for us to make choices. And --- I had an uncle who retired as a Donaldson Bakery delivery man. It was his life's occupation. Sealtest was the milk delivery company. Glass bottles of milk and decorative glasses of cottage cheese placed in a carrier on our porch are what I recall best. And even until at least the early 1950's we had home delivery of ice needed to cool our icebox. (Refrigerators came quickly thereafter to our street). We had a 4 sided sign with numbers on all sides. We placed the card in the front window with the number of the size of the ice chunk we needed that day showing at the top of the card. What fond memories.

Wasn't 3127 Portland where Morris (?) Roberts lived???? We lived upstairs there about 1943-44. I was about 4 or 5 years old then. We were living there when they dug those underground rooms out. Mr. Roberts and my dad lifted me down the ladder into that room. I remember that same underground railroad story. There were 2 Roberts daughters (can't remember their names) and a Roberts son (Buster???). I have a photo of all of us that my dad made. The older Roberts daughter was squirting the rest of us with a water hose. I also remember the day the iron fence out front was cut down by Mr. Roberts and donated to a metal drive for the war effort. Whose daughter are you???? Walker K.

I remember the Donaldson man. We called him the "bread man". He had the best goodies. If and when we could beg and plead with our mom to get something besides bread, I liked the fruit "pizza" the best. It was round like a pizza and had all sorts of fruit on top. Yum! Also the "milk man". I don't remember which dairy delivered ours. But I do remember that one could run a "tab". If my parents had no money at the time we could always get milk, and pay when money was available. Some of the small mom and pop groceries did that also. Try that at one of your chain stores today.

Dear Walker, Come to think of it, you are right. During the last year or two of WWII we put our car up on blocks in the garage and rode buses trolleys like most other people.

McCulloch "Thomas S. Fiske" <evytom@adelphia.net> wrote: Dear Listers, Nancy has brought up interesting memories. I failed to mention the horse-drawn ice trucks of the 1930's, from which I would swipe a small chunk of ice on a hot day. Since each delivery method was slow, the delivery man covered only a few neighborhoods. Therefore, there had to have been many small vendors throughout Louisville and Jefferson County. What I now understand about those vendors and their deliveries is that they brought a rhythm and a social atmosphere to the day and to the week that we do not have now (except mail deliveries and garbage trucks). For instance, a small boy was used to hearing the clip-clop of a horse at four o'clock on a warm afternoon as a wagon came by with fruit. He knew not to wander off because dinner would be ready in an hour or two. Housewives somehow knew to be ready to go out in the street and to fill their family's needs. Few families had two cars; the husband used the one they had. Mothers, not wanting to walk long distances with grocery bags in their arms, made sure they turned off "Lorenzo Jones" or whatever soap opera was available on the radio so they would not miss the wagon. Neighbors talked to each other as they gathered around the cart or truck. There were other vendors and other vehicles, and they all punctuated the day or the week with brief interruptions they made. When a vendor was sick and unable to make his deliveries, nearly the whole neighborhood knew it. They were disrupted by the missed beat in the rhythm of their everyday lives.

The local dairy guy in the Portland area was Craven's Dairy on N. 38th St. He delivered milk with cream on the top in glass bottles with pasteborad lids. In the Winter, if you didn't get in right away you had a milk bottle with a column of frozen cream standing several inches out of the bottle (with the lid laying on the top). Also Fenley's Dairy delivered in Portland. I believe Plainview succeeded Fenley. Plainview Subdivision and commercial development on Hurstbourne Lane (now the "Highway from Hades") occupies most of the old dairy farm. I also remember the ice cream vendors in the 50's rode a bicycle affair with a refrigerated box mounted on the front. And I remember all those varied other vendors who plyed their wares through our neighborhood either in trucks or with horse and wagon. I don't remember any merry-go-rounds pulled by horses or ponies, because we had Fontaine Ferry Park with its huge old merry-go-round not far away. that has been a long time ago in what seems now a different life-time.

Yes, I remember the Donaldson Man that sold the backery stuff, in my housing addition, at the old barricks ( Bowman Field) and the vegtable truck, I remember it being an old black truck, with the scale to measure hang down from the above frame. He even took a knife and pulled ther shucks down so you could see the corn was a good ear ( they don't do that anymore.)

did they used to have a horse drawn little merry-go-round like they did in the big city of Philadelphia? Like the ones they had in front of K-Mart a few years back but drawn around by a little horse wearing a hat? Junk man who would go around singing "any old junk today?" He collected for the war effort during WWII. Or Rosie the Riveter who used to walk by our house every day wearing her hair in a "snood" and carrying a black lunchbox on her way to work for the war effort?

Hi all... Being a first grader at George Rogers Clark Elementary School in 1952 has been forever frozen in my mind. We went on a field trip, which seemed FOREVER to the country lane called Hurstbourne LANE. We saw a farm and cows which I thought was pretty boring. When we got back to school, the next day we made butter with a hand churn. I'll never forget the amazing transformation of cream to butter. Miss Fegenbush was the teacher. Plainview Dairy owners were also the owners of the famous Saddlebred "Plainview's Julia!" Cheers, Laura
