Ramsdell of Rochester, N.Y. They included the most fashionable designs in shoes for a discriminating clientele. Today, these shoe designs look romantic and stylish and enjoy renewed popularity among the young and old alike.

This book also presents charming advertising cuts for the retail trade to use when it publicized these shoes in newspapers.
