I guess there might be some connection between the hebrew script and the leather shop - Hindus hold cows sacred, and so would not touch leather (I think), yet there are non-hindus who use leather goods, so there will be a leather industry, and the leather industry will be in the hands of non-hindus.

Mind you, cricket balls are leather-wrapped cork, and many indians - including Hindus - are crazy for cricket. I'm not sure how this works out, kinda like a jewish or muslim guy playing football and catching the pigskin. Hmmm

/ramble.
