What an adorable story.
If I could choose a profession solely because of the name, this one would be in my top 5 for sure.
And I love all of the vintage messiness.
Dustin Cohen made a lovely little film about shoemaker Frank Catalfumo,
who has been making and repairing shoes in Brooklyn since before World
War II.
Frank Catalfumo is a 91 year old shoemaker and repairer in Bensonhurst,
Brooklyn. He first opened the doors to F&C Shoes in 1945 and
continues to work five days a week alongside his son Michael. If you're
ever in the area, make sure to stop by the shop and listen to one of
Frank's amazing stories about life in Brooklyn back in the day.
