Details: This wonderful pair of never worn shoes dates to the Edwardian era. The soles of the shoe hardly show a scuff and these were old store stock.  Found in the an old mercantile store, the Wheeler Brothers General Store, started in 1845, and when Silas Wheeler closed the store in 1968, everything from grains to tools, to sewing implements and silk stockings were left on their original shelves, undisturbed and untouched.

The shoes are made of black leather with their original painted steel tip laces fully intact. The bottom sole, which is pictured, proves they have not been worn and reads YE OLDE TYME COMFORT SHOE. The leather shows minor creases from storage, but their condition is otherwise mint. Measure 2/3 inches at the widest point and exactly 10 inches toe tip to heel. I estimate that these shoes are around a women’s size 6. The heel measures just over an inch in its height and stands 7 inches tall.
