great sign...my dad was a shoe repairman..such a dying breed. there are many in nyc however as people walk there so much and I guess like to have their shoes fixed if they are comfy. thanx for the photo!!
My grandfather used to be a shoe repair man in Long Island City. I remember going to his shop and just watching him work with all of his machinery. I remember all of the different smells from the glues to the polishes. Ah, good times.

I think it's rare nowaday seeing a shoe repair in a big city... I am correct?

The color, the cartoonish figure, the sense of timelessness - Perfect.
And the Hebrew says...?
Ken, you have a true talent for finding old gems like this. It is always a pleasure to visit your blog.
The Hebrew says "Yankel's."
