A great holiday series, Nathan.

54_19 reminded me of the of the A&J Rubel, Co., a small town Jewish 
clothing store where my mother worked as cashier during my teen-age 
years.  Jake Rubel kept the shoe "lasts" of his more prosperous 
customers so that, when the customer wanted a new pair of shoes, he 
would select a style and they would send in the lasts along with the 
order for a custom-made pair.

Jake also managed to bring his brother and his family to the US around 
1939.  I grew up with the brother's son, Werner.
