What are facts about medieval Minstrels?
A minstrel was a medieval European bard who performed songs whose lyrics told stories about distant places or about real or imaginary historical events. Though minstrels created their own tales, often they would memorize and embellish the works of others. Frequently they were retained by royalty and high society. As the courts became more sophisticated, minstrels were eventually replaced at court by the troubadours, and many became wandering minstrels, performing in the streets and became well liked until the middle of the Renaissance, despite a decline beginning in the late 15th century. Minstrelsy fed into later traditions of traveling entertainers, which continued to be moderately strong into the early 20th century, and which has some continuity down to today's buskers or street musicians.
What is the history of Wilson Leather?
I know that during the 70's the stores were know as "Wilson's House of Suede" and the shop I was familiar with was in North Hollywood, California. They TV ads I believe were usually for Mens Jackets. Prior to the late 80's, there were two companies: Wilson's House of Suede - mainly on the West Coast, and Berman's in the Midwest and East. They merged, kept the Bermans operating structure, and renamed the chain Wilsons. The company was founded as Berman Buckskin at the turn of the 20th Century. The Berman Buckskin building remained in downtown Minneapolis until the mid 90's when it was finally torn down.
