Shipshape it is but not its old building, and Mr. Shaw can't find another--he's fated to work for Franklin Flair, no longer to be his own master, until Captain Shipley of the Sheba takes decisive action and installs Mr. Shaw's Shipshape Shoeshop aboard ship. A shoemaker with a penchant for ships allows for lots of alliteration and some picturesque paintings, parti-colored and restlessly crosshatched. Otherwise, it's the familiar reprieve for the independent craftsman with a nautical twist, hearty and unabashedly heart-warming.
