Lexington County Museum's Artifact of the Week: March 17-23

This week's artifact is a cobbler's shoe last owned by the father of the donor, a native of Newberry County. This shoe last dates from the early twentieth century. Shoe lasts were used by shoemakers to shape shoes when they were being made.

See this artifact and more at the Lexington County Museum, located at 231 Fox Street in downtown Lexington. Visit www.lex-co.sc.gov/museum for more information.
