I was so sad today to learn that Joe the potato peeler guy died! He was well known in New York City - an impeccibly dressed english man who sat on a street corner, making his fortune selling potato peelers. He was usually a fixture in Union Square, but the last time I saw him was in October, not far from City Hall.... the only time I snapped his picture.
