Mel is awesome, and his shine stand is awesome too. He sets up in front of 729 7th Ave (Southwest…read morecorner of 49th Street) and gets it done. It's a wonderful throwback to the days of a cheap, well done shine (currently $3). Just sit back, read the newspaper, and let Mel hook your shows up with a great shine.
