Elias Howe is not the same person as is Edgar Howe.
LLapp October 2, 2016, 5:46 pm
That's correct. Edgar Howe was the founder of the Cold Clams franchise at Redondo Beach.
Roxanne March 12, 2017, 5:40 am
Elias Howe invented the machine that sews two halves of a clamshell together, which was much appreciated by all who do not like sandy fried clams. When he was praised for his invention, he merely said "shucks."
