 Remember your parents putting taps or doing something to your shoes with one of these. ... I remember Dad on the back verandah putting my taps on my tap shoes for dancing and also adding the tips for normal shoes. |

no but i was told that my great uncle was just that
and he had the repair shop under his house....back in the day
we used to have a repair shop too where i live, but, the son drove it into the ground i guess, and something else, well a barber shop has been extended instead

At last Emerald you and I have seen them and boy! it was the simple days. It would have been in the 1950's when my Dad was using it.
