Old Boots, A well known character at Rippon in Yorkshire, 1821. Creator: Robert Cooper
Old Boots, A well known character at Rippon in Yorkshire, 1821. Portrait of Old Boots (c1692-1762), an eccentric shoe shiner who was blessed with a plentitude of nose and chin. People frequently gave him money, on condition that he would hold it between his nose and chin; which request he always complied with, and bore off the treasure with great satisfaction. From " Wonderful Characters: Comprising Memoirs and Anecdotes of the Most Remarkable Persons of Every Age and Nation", Vol. II, by Henry Wilson. [J. Robins and Co. Albion Press, London, 1821]
