    It does have charm. To my eye, a '50s look...

    Apparently the pattern was introduced in '53. This example is no later than the early '60s. There's a phone number on the back that starts with a letter prefix.

    I like it, reminds me of the ones my Mom used to do. I still have a couple of those.
    ( I find it hard to believe that the 60s were 50 years ago......)

    Nah, the '60s were yesterday... or at most a few years ago... right?

    Got these today.....
    1) Had to buy the Paris book....
    2) My alarms went off in the storage area in my head when I saw the child's shoe form. My recollection is any kids shoe forming stuff is rare. Yes?
    It is about 13" tall overall and tweaked which may have been that way from the original casting. What do you think? Any clue to ballpark it? Thank you! :)

    If you can't sell it, you can always use it to display other things so all isn't lost.

    The game's a foot, after all. Put a deerstalker on it?
