Shoe Making 05.10.14 : Assistant Report 1

There are many antique markets in Florence and in surrounding cities. Last weekend I was lucky enough to find this vintage shoemaking hammer.
Be sure to take proper care of your shoes. If you have some free time it is worthwhile to repair them when they get worn out. My shoes mid repair with the heels removed and new brass tacks on the toe.
