You are correct Pete. But... if we really want to get anal about this (and we are a pretty anal bunch or we wouldn't be concerned that the script be two different sizes on our RC-15 radiator caps!!!) Vandolay Industries and Art Vandolay are really two different fictional entities. Vandolay Industries is the latex manufacturer that, as Pete so aptly pointed out, was considering hiring George as its latex salesman.

Art Vandolay, the importer exporter, was Elaine's fictional boyfriend (again dreamed up by George) that Elaine and George were supposed to be discussing while George was out with Marissa Tomei talking about "ma" and "newer", while he was "sort of" engaged to Susan.

Glad we cleared that up.

NOW can I be your latex salesman????


Lynn

Who could ever forget Teri Hatcher's famous line as she shut the door to Jerry's apartment "Oh, and by the way, they are real and they're spectacular!"

Well I'm guilty of wanting to throw an Art Vandelay joke in this thread also but it looks like you guys beat me to the punch several times already. I wonder if the show writers have any idea of the credibility that they gave that name. When I hear import/export, Vandelay is the first name that pops in my head.

Vandelay group aside, I've always heard only good about Mackie Transport. . They've been there for years and used to have an old Douglas A26 WW2 Bomber on the roof of their original building beside Hi-way 401 in Oshawa. . They have a nicely restored 50's tractor trailer, KW I think also they or one of the family has the Oshawa Harley Davidson dealership? ~ Pete

So Lynn if I am reading this correctly you are claming that there are "2" diffrent Vandolays??? Do you have any picture proof of this and why are you just making that claim now.
Next you will be saying that one of the Vandolays has a swing open door
I feel before you go making these unfounded statements that you should have done your homework first.
If you feel the need to continue this discussion we should take it off line.

Only one of the Vandelays had a working door, lets call it # 1 and it also had a Kremer brand reverse peekhole. . The # 2 had only a handle for looks but no door. . The guy who sold # 1 said it was real so it must be true? . I've heard if you opened the #1 door or looked through the reverse peekhole you could see some of Carl Farban's handywork? . Lets all celebrate with a few shots of Henderson's odourless booze! ~ Pete
