Blampied, Philip , Boot and Shoe Manufacturer, Khyber Pass Road, Newmarket. Bankers, Bank of New South Wales. Mr. Blampied is a native of Jersey, he arrived  in New Zealand  in 1874 as a single man, who was already a shoemaker at 18yrs,  by the ship "Cartvale," from London. He first opened in business in Christchurch, and began in Auckland as a boot and shoe manufacturer in 1883. Mr. Blampied has a thorough knowledge of the business, and with perseverance he has succeeded in obtaining a large share of work from all parts of the colony. His factory gives employment to five regular hands, and he keeps the most improved sewing and eye-letting machines, presses, rollers, etc. The premises are built of wood, are two stories in height, and have a floorage space of 2400 square feet. Mr. Blampied's specialty is hand-sewn boots and shoes, for which he has a well-earned reputation.
