    Thurlow’s shoes was on State and Middle. Quality Shoe was on Essex and State. Hyman’s had a “rock” band and free cotton candy one afternoon each summer.

    Not a cobbler or even a shoe store was the very narrow shoe shine parlor. I used to marvel at the pin-wheels and other novelties he displayed out in front of this long vanished establishment. He was located past Puritans on Pleasant St.. Though very narrow, the shine bench and seats, went far back into the block. I don’t think I ever saw anyone getting a shine there. I just recall him standing out on the sidewalk, hawking the toys when we went by…
