Got this little cobblers tool at auction today. Almost noone knew what it was. If your bunions are hurting,stop by and I'll stretch your shoes.
Patented on Oct 30'1917.  Patent 1244638.

I usually see tools of that nature with long handles.   Starting a new line of collecting?

 All of this type tool I had seen also had long handles but ole Charley Passmore had another idea. I'm not sure it was a better idea.
no I'm not collecting these. I may have a pair of the long handled ones but proably sold them.

That's the kind of thing you hang on the wall to stump the know-it-alls ;P

..stump the dummies like me too!!!!
