Notes
Shoemakers lasts. Lasts for shaping shoes for right and left feet appeared in 1818 and by the mid-century when the sewing machine was invented it was quickly adapted to shoemaking. Previously most shoes were made by attaching the soles to the upper with tacks, nails or wooden pegs. Any sewing was done by hand. When Joseph Hunziger came to Foote's bay from Chepstow in 1910 he brought these lasts with him. They are believed to be his father's. Loaned by: Stan Hunziger
