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.

Were there any dairies in the 40's and 50's besides Erhler's, Haywoods and Plainview? Last, the man who sold strawberries and other fruits and vegs from his cart during the summer have a horse-drawn cart or was it a large flat wagon he pushed?
