A bottle of Tru-Sheen fly spray. The Tru-Sheen Company, Trappe, Md. was
probably just a local label attached to products made elsewhere. Does
anyone know anything about this Trappe enterprise? It probably dates
from the 1930s or '40s.
These were the days before aerosol cans, so the fly spray was poured
into a sprayer that had a little tank mounted beneath a horizontal
plunger. It was somewhat of an art to operate the plunger while keeping
the contraption aimed to spray some sort of noxious mixture in the
general direction of the fly.
