Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 14″ ad for their shoes for Little Boys and Little Girls. The headline reminds us that the “Feet of the Future are being built today” and the various pictures show children of all ages busy in their daily activities. For Little Boys the ad shows the F-112 in Brown Elk with a Super-Flex Sole, the F-12 in Brown Elk with a Shark Tip and a Health Cushion, the E-367 in Antique Brown with a moccasin vamp and the E-366 in Antique Brown with the half-double sole. For Little Girls they show the F-95 in White Elk with a Health Cushion, the G-742 in Brown with a moccasin vamp and a Health Cushion, the F-600 in Patent with a Health Cushion and the F-524 in Patent with an Elasticized gabardine saddle. The text reminds us that Buster Brown was also makers of Official Boy and Girl Scout shoes and the shoes shown range in price from $2.50 to $5.95. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
