The Jewel Tea Company had salesmen that went door to door selling mostly food items, as I remember. I remember the Jewel Tea man coming every twoo weeks to my grandmother's in the '40's.

Was it the Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company ? In the early 1960's, there was a "Tea Lady" who came around door to door, here in Fulton County, PA. I can remember the anticipation of her arrival, so as to look over her "Wares" ! missysue
