Joseph (a.k.a. Gentlemen Peeler)

Oh my goodness! I kind of feel guilty right now! I was looking through my pictures that I took last Spring and I came across this picture. This guy, Joseph, has sold carrot peelers in Union Square in NYC for YEARS! He goes to the Farmers Market there and sets up his little display and does a "show" of sorts. He is from Manchester, England and shouts out crazy things in a strong English accent. His clothing is eye-catching because he is ALWAYS dressed VERY nicely and he is actually EXTREMELY wealthy and lives in an EXPENSIVE apartment in Manhattan. I have seen him interviewed on the news and even in the newspapers because of his selling ability and what a great entrepreneur he is. Well, guess what! I was going to post this and kind of laugh about it....but as I just googled him so I could find out his name for this post....I saw that he died a couple weeks ago at age 75. Oops! I guess I wont see him around the Farmers Market this Spring. R.I.P Peeler Man!
