Deaf peddlers

An American manual alphabet card, 2013

Deaf peddlers are Deaf people who sell to the wider public manual alphabet cards, keychains, nail clippers, pencils and pens,^[1] national flags,^[2]^[3] or receipts in various amounts, which they have printed themselves. In this peddling, the sellers claim that they are deaf, to manipulate or put pressure on the buyer.^[4] Some "Deaf" peddlers fake their deafness in order to trick people.^[5]

In the United States , the National Association of the Deaf made a campaign against Deaf peddlers, for improving the status of Deaf people as American citizens who are able in body and in mind.^[6]
