Lew Mass's trousers

I don't know how long ago Lew Mass sold his trousers in King Street Newtown (which now  really should be called Old town) but I've always been stopped in my tracks by this shop.

Until quite recent weeks it actually had its windows still stocked with, browned by age, packets of buttons and general dusty tailor stuff

It was the Miss Haversham of the trouser shop world

When I took this last week you may notice that The Jets were using the window for a bit of promo ...and yesterday the shop was full of trendy clothes ...so I expect that quite soon the age-old signwriters master work will disappear down the tubes forever.

I particularly like the line "from materials made up" whatever that means?
