I enjoy seeing that the truly classic styles remain timeless. Here's the inspiration for that Carmina... Foot Joy mid to late 1930's custom-made Spectators.

I wish to HELL this guy had heard of shoe horns, as that seems to be the only condition issue... but after 75 years, it's hard to be overly choosy.

I really like the U last in general but this one appears to have a tighter waist which I like even more. Is this just the angle of the picture or are the waists tighter than before?

Possibly the angle of the photo, but there are slight variances from shoe to shoe in terms of how tight the waist can be. It is handmade after all.
