When I was a kid in the late 60’s/early 70’s, I used to sell door-to-door (mainly from those outfits in the back of the comic books) and I saw plenty of these room-dividing shelf units near the front door. I knew if I got to the other side and didn’t knock over any knick-Knacks, the sale was as good as done.
There were also lots of plants hanging in macrame ropes, shag carpeting, and of course I was wearing bell bottoms. Those were the good old days in suburbia.
