A Moment in Black History

Jan Earnest Matzeliger was born on September 15, 1852 in Paramaribo, Surinam, a Dutch colony on the northern coast of South America. At the age of 20 he emigrated invented a machine, which would change the entire shoe industry. His shoe lasting machine-enabled leather to be stretched over a shoe last, which is a wooden or metal model of the human foot. Once the leather is stretched it can then be attached to the inner sole. This process was originally done by hand, which made shoes expensive because of the large amounts of time and labor involved. With Matzeliger's invention 150 - 750 shoes, depending on the type of leather, could be lasted each day.
