Pure Milk Delivery Dray - Probably by Merriam Mfg. Company Durham, CT - Mid 1880's - 18” Long Fine This toy exudes the charm of a different era, a time when dairy products were delivered by a faithful servant to the community. In truth, I can remember a milkman delivering fresh milk and cream in my childhood in the early 1960's. He would place it in a zinc coated lidded box at the back of our house. We even knew his name, but I have long forgotten it.
