Nice monochrome and a memory stirrer we called them shoe makers in NYC it was a great trade at the time soles wore out take it to the shoe maker or as you put the cobbler.
We have a similar business at the mall but they do all kinds of leather work as well.
Nice posting Laine.

It's difficult to find shoe repair shops any more around here. A neat shot of this guy!

A really cool shot. Thankfully there are still a few place that do shoe repairs, perhaps not as skilled as the cobblers of old.

Most towns in France have a cobblers, turning their hands to any repairs of leather.

The cobbling trade is almost a thing of the past, though there are a few around here. Very cool shot. V
