Did you know?
Bambi was originally published in 1929 in German.

Band-Aid bandages first appeared on the market in 1921, however, the little red string that is used to open the package did not get added until 1940.

Barbers at one time combined shaving and haircutting with bloodletting and pulling teeth. The white stripes on a field of red on a barber pole represent the bandages used in the bloodletting.
