Quiz - who's this famous Montreal oddball?

It is indeed Ludwig Karls from the famous Karls Shoe Store on the Main above Rachel. He is seen here on his wedding day in 1956.
  His store was about the craziest place in town, shoes piled hazardously every place as he'd bark at customers and staff without the slightest hesitation.

  1. I have a few stories of him - i believe it's Karl's Shoes owner. I think his last name was Luddy (which was probably shortened).
