Arthur Nyman Jewish Master Tailor

[Simon63]

Hi does anyone remember Arthur Nyman the Jewish Tailor, he was in Sheffield during the mid 1930s, a friend of Margaret Holmes.

I believe he was still working in the sixties possibly on the moor as a master tailor.

There was an Isadore Newman on the Moor in the sixties ,his shop was some where around where Sainsbury's now stand .

Thanks Albert, Ive heard of Isadore Newman and Nyman is a spelling variation. But wonder if he had another member of the family called Arthur.

All the best Simon

Never had a suit from Isidore but some from Barney and also Bill Mackley on Corporation St. Once tried the tailor on the corner of Peace Gardens and Pinstone St, facing the Town Hall but can't recall his name at all.
