Diemer taught the salesmen to blow bubbles
Walter Diemer worked as an accountant while experimenting with gum in his spare time. His 1928 bubble gum development was followed by teaching salesmen how to blow bubbles so they could demonstrate the product. His contribution extended beyond his accounting job title.
The accountant also trained the product’s demonstrators.
