The Salon des Arts Ménagers (SAM) was an annual exhibition in Paris of domestic appliances, furniture and home designs. Managed by government agencies from 1923 to 1983, SAM’s purpose was to introduce consumers to new types of appliances, materials and modern concepts of home layout. Over the decades SAM became less relevant as stores began to offer broader ranges of products. The last exhibition was held in 1983. Ref: Wiki. See also #31, p7.
